We simply don't know most people assume since kabuto killed itachi 2 times during his edo form , that kabuto is stronger than itachi but they fail to realize that itachi had no intention to kill kabuto in the first place and his primary goal was to protect sasuke and Capture kabuto

If people could put fanboyism down for a moment and being totally realistic about the battle then what do we have?

Itachi is more than capable of defeating DSM Kabuto, although it would NOT be as easy for him. Especially as he wouldnt have his brother as a wingman in that particular battle.

It can be argued that Itachi was fatally stabbed in that battle by kabuto (at the point that he cast the Infinite Loop) and because he was edo it did not kill him. So in another situation the question would then be if he would have allowed himself to get stabbed at all. And i highly doubt he would have. Itachi KNEW he was an edo so he knew where he could take advantage of that. He could have easily shielded the blow with some Susanoo armour.

Then again, without his edo form.. would he have had enough stamina to defeat kabuto in the battle?

Only one phrase comes to my mind: Itachi Solos.

Sorry but it still came to that.

Kabuto had the power to stop Itachi.

Also, he had all the information on Akatsuki.

With no distractions Hell yea!

There's no shinobi in this manga/anime to even make the God get serious.. Yakushi has no chance no matter what form you give him against Godtachi.

This goes for most of NV!

Itachi had more tricks up his sleeve. Kabuto didn't know sh*t about him.

I agree with this but I do feel like Itachi is a bit underrated. He handled sannin like Orochimaru easily. His skills are that of a top notch shinobi. Kabuto constantly praised him and was only confident because Itachi couldn't kill him.

The only trick Itachi had was Izanami. Other than that, Itachi showed nothing new.

Susanoo (including Spiritual Weapons) - White Dragon Technique
Amaterasu - Rebirth Technique
Tsukuyomi - Snake slits (covering his eyes)
Sharingan - Sage Powers or Sound Four powers, or including others like Karin, Juugo, and Suigetsu.

He had the perfect skills to counter Itachi.

The risk Kabuto had was that Sasuke was on his side and Edo Tensei was Itachi's advantage.

Was just about to say this. Furthermore, Kabuto has more stamina and so he can last longer and Itachi's best moves are very chakra taxing. Kabuto wins.

Itachi is smart, yes but he does not possesed enough of power to defeat Kabuto when sound genjutsu is just too haxed for even Sharingan user as there are no way that Itachi can defend himself from it.
