You are seriously overrating Itachi and underrating Madara. EMS Itachi needs lots and lots of time to be on par with EMS Madara, maybe several decades. Itachi had to live longer first.
Madara is not a fodder, he was the leader of Uchiha, a legend, the true rival of Hashirama! Tsunade said that the name itself is power, the world will tremble in fear!
LolLolLol Is that all you could reply?? Sure healthy Itachi must be very strong, but to compare him to Madara, he was still far away.
Itachi died very young, and you couldn't compare a young 21-year-old Itachi with the old experienced Madara that fought Hashirama at VOTE. Just look back at their VOTE battle, it was on a whole other level.
