who would you say is better at taijutsu. Gai's taijutsu is better than anyone's but Madara's perception and an incredible ability to read through a person's movements makes anyone a sitting duck. You saw the episode where he took on the whole 4th division and took them all on using taijutsu only. Hirudora and the eight gates are pretty OP when it comes to only taijutsu. I dunno if Gai uses the gates then madara could only use susano'o to dodge. Gai had trouble against Kisame without the gates but I don't see Madara losing to kisame at all even if madara is only using taijutsu.
