I just felt like reviewing the two if they were to fight before shippuden and during shippuden.

Before Shippuden:

If Neji and Saskue fought I would have to give the win Neji all of which for the following reasons (After the Chunin Exams):

Both shiniobi being at the top of both their classes (remember Neji was held back from the previous Chunin exams according to Guy in order to develop his teams skills), we can conclude both Neji and Saskue were highly skilled shinobi hailing from esteemed clans ironically both having dojutsu kekkei genkais the byakugan for the Hyugas and the sharingan for the Uchihas. I give Neji the win his taijutsu and close quarter skills are superb, even though Saskue had undergone training with Kakashi I still do not believe Saskue was strong enough to defeat Neji even with his Chidori as long as the battle between the two maintained at close quarters Neji would have the win hands down. However if the battle was maintained at long distance or mid distance the battle would simply be slowed down because there would be a small array of jutsus if any coming from the two.

During Shippuden:

If Neji and Saskue fought I would have to give the win to Saskue all of which for the following reasons:

Hands down Saskue wins simply because of the vast development this gives him the upper hand unlike before shippuden where he had little long-mid distance jutsus the scenario is fully changed thanks to his developed sharingan now Mangekyo (well hes getting Itachi's eyes now but you get the point). Neji on the other handing being a Neji and also developed still does not stand a chance against Saskue simply because any jutsu he attempts on Saskue will be pitiful both with Susanoo or without. In addition Saskue wields a sword, can use Ameterasu, his speed is exceptional, and ext. Saskue mainly wins because of development shown even if Neji were to increase strength Saskue wins due to his skill, jutsus, and that infamous mangekyo sharingan.

Final:

Before Shippuden - Neji
During Shippuden- Saskue

(Sorry for any grammar errors)

Even though the curse seal increases Saskues chakra lvls to the lvl of Naruto in 1 tail form, like I said Saskue has limited jutsu when I picture it I just imagine Saskue charging in which makes it easy for Neji simply because he exceeds at Taijutsu and CQC. Then again everyone has their opinions :)

taijutsu doesnt work well with sharingan enemy, even naruto's one tail movement speed can be read by sasuke (before shippuden). what neji has else?

does sasuke have 3 tomoe sharingan? if so he should have the advantage. also, sasuke has several fire style jutsu that can be used mid to long range. whereas neji has zero mid to long range jutsu. he would have to get close to win but sasuke with 3 tomoe can see his moves and dodge and counter

Yeah he would have the 3 tomoe, yeah I considered Saskue useing those fire jutsu but then again for me I cannot simply imagine Neji trying to get into the offensive and try to pull of his moves. If Saskue had used the fire style jutsus as I said that would only extend the length of the battle, I just don't picture Neji going into the offensive if Saskue does attack using Fire Style. I picture Neji just simply dodging until he devises a strat or Saskue makes a mistake.

Its Sasuke's win for both

in the 1st series after he went off with kakashi and learnt chidori he became the man he surpassed that of neji then

and in shippuden do i need to say more
Yes you are correct he did learn the Chidori, but thats a head on attack therefore meaning an offensive upper hand because of Neji's superb Taijutsu. Imagining the fight as long as Neji is close to Saskue hes got the advantage.

I agree with Hyuga22, pre ship Sasuke would be destroyed by Neji, Taijutsu Neji can see all his moves and act accordingly, Ninjutsu Neji can rotation all of Sasuke's moves, however Genjutsu he could be tricked maybe?
Sasuke didn't demonstrate any Genjustu b4 shipp...But yea I think a hand to hand combat will be unavoidable leading to Neji winning the first senario.

maybe and maybe not. sasuke has the sharingan and incredible speed so he should be able to dodge all of neji's taijutsu and gentle fist. neji may be better at taijutsu but as sakura has learned, you have to land a punch to win and i think that could be hard for neji against sasuke. the only problem i see for sasuke is rotation. however sasuke should be able to figure out a way around it or maybe just attack head on with curse mark and see what happens.
