He could beat Nagato and Kakashi, it's true...
But the argument goes both ways.
Nagato could defeat Itachi...
And Itachi could defeat Nagato.
I'd say that only Hashirama, Madara and Juubito are the only ones that the chance of winning is almost 100%. Those three would defeat Itachi because they're just too much, they outclass him.
Others like Naruto or Sasuke would have a nice chance of winning, but it wouldn't be because they outclass Itachi. It'd only be because they're not good opponents considering Itachi's abilities.
Naruto has a high chance of winning because of Kurama. He has good sensing abilities, he's immune to most genjutsu, he's extremely fast, he has a powerful defense with his cloak and Kurama has knowledge of Itachi's weapons. Bad opponent for Itachi.
Sasuke is probably another with good chance of winning. Try and hit him with Amaterasu when he's protected by the Susano'o. And honestly, he's seen Itachi's weapons already. He'd be able to think of strategies against them.
We have to remember that we've only seen Itachi fighting seriously twice. Once against Nagato and another against Kabuto. Itachi is not only powerful, he's also extremely smart.
