Honestly I don't see why people don't get 3rd Raikage would lose to Sasuke. 3rd Raikage is tough but he has weaknesses.
First of all Sasuke EMS is completely different from Pre mastery of MS... the one the 4th fought. Now that fight would have either ended in a Sasuke win for mid difficulty or Raikages win for high difficulty. (Yes I count losing an arm and half your body as high difficulty).
Now lets compare the 3rd to the 4th. The 4th is noted for his speed numerous times. While the 3rd was noted for his powerful defence and attack.
Why the 3rd will lose--------------------------
The 4th developed V2 Raiton Armour while the 3rd did not. The 3rd has small speed feats compared to the 4th. Sasuke was able to keep up and dodge A's attacks with his sharigan in V1 Raiton Armour who is still probably faster than the 3rd.
Only when Raikage went V2 lightning armour Sasuke couldn't keep up with him.
The 3rd can be hit with Amaterasu since he is not fast enough to escape Sasukes sights.
Even so when the Raikage escaped his sights Sasuke was able to defend himself with Enton Susanoo.
Now the 3rd not being as fast the 4th leaves him open to genjutsu that even though some people consider it "weak" has one shotted anyone without a jinchuriki or sharigan to break out of it.
So now Amaterasu and genjutsu is fair game how will the 3rd defeat Sasuke? Simple he can't. The 3rd one shotting Sasuke in Susanoo?
:rofl: Very unlikely. A complete Susanoo has yet to be shown to be broken in through.
Noobs: The 4th Raikage broke through Susanoo why can't the 3rd?
This
does not equal this
or even this
and this!
With every one of 3rd Raikages attacks he loses a limb with an Enton Susanoo. Sasuke has now mastery if not complete mastery of MS Sharigan. He can manipulate the flames to his liking. He is the perfect counter for this opponent.
