Wow, for once me and peaceful agree.
Pain saying "if youd known my secret to being so strong, youd have won"
Is like pain saying
"If hermit mode was cancelled, you had no ninetails and i understood your moves, id have won"
Well duh.
Many shinobi could own pain if they understood his secret, not just Jiraiya.

Dude, JIraya wouldnt have won Pein even if he knew the secrets of his. Naruto who pretty much did, still failed to defeat a 30% Pein. (He was coughing up blood when he started fighting Naruto). Moreover, Naruto was exhausted and couldnt stand after the pein fight and Pein killed himself. He could have taken over Naruto with whatever jutsu he had there, but used that Rinne Tensei.
And do you really think Jiraya could have won Madara even if he knew his secret techniques?
Eveyone knew that MInato had space/time technique called FTG but noone could defeat him :|
Madara's technique is even greater.
There are techniques and abilities that are just.. impossible for someone to defeat even if you know how they work.
Jiraya is strong and so on, but he lost to Pein and Pein didnt even use his God Realm. ANd this was a fair fight, because Pein didn't know about Jiraya's abilities too.
Now think about it, Madara was controlling Pein who wasnt the one who would like to obey someone and Jiraya lost to Pein without him even using a God Realm. This only shows how strong Madara is.. and that he is on a whole different level of power.
