This is one of the fights that before I entered this thread is already decided who I think would win, but gaara's fans have done him justice and now I'm not that sure.
We know that gai is at a disadvantage due to the surrounding, but also he is a close combat type which gaara is the exact opposite.
Now gaara's sand has improved a lot since the chunnin exams and although its pretty fast, Gai wouldn't need to open his gates to get past it. Lee taking off his weights got past it and I need not tell you that Gai is far superior than lee in everything, although I've acknowledged that gaara's sand is a lot faster now.
If Gai can get past his sand which he can then that's it, gaara's durability shouldn't be compared with kisame's. I do know that gaara tanked lee's strongest attack with his sand and guord, but Gai is superior than lee's. Do I believe gaara can tank morning peacock and.afternoon tiger?, no.
If Gai gets past his sand and opens his gates, gaara loses.
In gaara's case he has improved greatly and his sand can cause even the elite of ninja's trouble. Do I think his sand can stall Gai, for him to fly?, yes. once gaara is in the air life would get extremely hard and annoying for Gai.
I can see gaara stalling with his sand for him to fly then once in the air he can manipulate his sand, without Gai having an answer for how to counter this. Infact once gaara is in the air, gai would be on the defensive for the rest of the fight.
Gaara takes this with high difficulty
