Konohamaru decently gives part 1 kakashi a good fight... but all i see is kakashi having seen and fought, sooo many high quality shinobi and figuring out a good stagety/counter to beat them... Konohamaru puts up a good fight but kakashis expirence is the difference, hes already seen everything Konohamaru will try to do to him (Shadow clone jutsu, shuriken jutsu, burning ash technique, rasengan, katon, raiton.)

Isn't that a case of Kakashi having more screen time? (such that Konohamaru can have as much experience, but we weren't shown)

OT:
In terms of hype, Kono was supoosed to be a potential Hokage but that doesn't seem to have been followed up on. On the other hand, Kakashi has all his "best technician", "not yet strong enough for Hokage" and in the future, War General (based on Part 1 hype, tbh) hype. Now that matters because Kono seems to be a copypasta of Kakashi (specialises in techniques, son of prestigious heritage, leads main team) yet hasn't been given any of those titles. The biggest issue is that he hasn't even been compared so the assumption is that he hasn't reached those levels yet.

Of course,it could be that he's simply more reserved or lives at a different time so he wouldn't be compared even if he was at that level. His beating of Jugo, whom I consider stronger than Part 1 Kakashi, is definitely telling. Some characters have hype, others have showings.

This leaves it down to abilities. I give it to Kakashi on account of his possible combinations, namely Fanged Pursuit + Genjutsu.

Either that or Kono benefits from some new era advancements to mop the floor with Kakashi.

yeah could be kakashi having more screen time does make sense, but that rule pretty much applies to every naruto character. Like if Tenten had more screen time shed probley be more useful/ or better. I was looking at it from an over-all examination like, even if we give Konohamaru the same Physical Stats, Expirence, and screen time as kakashi, i still see kakashi wining due to "In Character" reasons. I just see kakashi AT LEAST tricking and/or catching konohamaru off gaurd more times then Konohamaru does to kakashi. Dont get me wrong, Konohamaru is a prodigy.... but Kakashis more prodigy, theres levels to this...

I hear you

My main gripe was with the paneltime thing.
Way I see it, if a character is implied to have certain skills, then that applies unless we have explicit counter-evidence.

Like, if the manga shows TenTen blitz Raikage, then we assume she is thaaaat fast unless manga gives counter reason. We also assume her general abilities are also above Raikage level unless manga mentions unique strength and weakness etc.
