Can part 1 Kakashi beat Kimimaro in his "healthy" state?

[rikuxreborn]

So i was reading trough some older posts and found this, wondered about this for a while when i watched the part 1 series.

the fact that Orochimaru said that Kimimaro was the only reason they could get this far, Kimimaro was the reason why Orochimaru could kill Kezekage, I bet Kimimaro did all the work and then afterwards Orochimaru struck the final blow... Kimimaro was too fast for Lee (who just got back from a surgery) but even too fast for Gaara sand at some moments? All this, yet he was really really really sick?

I wonder how strong Kimimaro was in his prime really... he must've been pretty badass, don't you think?

-The Sound 4 were strong enough to defeat two jonin when they all transformed with their Cursed Seals.
-Kimimaro single-handely defeated the Sound 4
-This means that Kimimaro in his prime was strong enough to defeat two jonin without much trouble

Judging by this, I'd say he was high jonin level, probably around Asuma's level and somewhat weaker than part I Kakashi.

BUT who would win, who have the advantages? :heh:
