What could bring me to ask this question you wonder? Well its this.

My definition of defeat involves you finishing the enemy off or rendering him incapable of defeating you such as when Hashirama beat Madara the first time but let him live. Danzo had one more move left and ultimately it would have ended in a draw if obito didnt warn and save sasuke. I commend Sasuke for his fight this was one of my fav matches but it seems we just loosely say Sasuke beat Danzo when in fact the match would have been a draw. So imo Sasuke=Danzo.
Sasuke did beat him, but with help and a heal boost in the end.
It was not a fair fight, but this is the way things go.
While Sasuke did beat Danzo, it was a very pathetic victory, and Danzo had to hold back the entire time due to "Madara".
I'd say Danzo could have killed Sasuke there, yes.
But Danzo did have Sasuke undoubtedly beaten here.

At that point his KA was working again. However, because "Madara" was there he couldn't decide whether or not to use Shisui'd eye for KA or for Izanagi. If "Madara" weren't there Danzo would have undoubtedly used KA against Sasuke.
So this just proves Sasuke and friends>Danzo
But my point is your goal in a battle is to come out alive. To defeat someone I must kill them or render all their attempts to kill me useless. If i cant stop/counter Deidara's suicide bomb I dont get a point in the win column cuz im dead. How do you say one person one when they both are dead. Sasuke clearly had a lot of things going for him and even with all this he should be dead. Two people dying is a draw i dont see any logic that says otherwise.
Idk about shishui's eye being damaged. Obito evaluates the situation in that he was just using izanagi until the eye was working again after stating its working again.
But, if I cannot stop/counter Deidara's suicide bomb, but manages to avoid it, it means that I win. The same happened to Danzo. With help, Sasuke was able to dodge Danzo's last attack. We will never know if Sasuke would be able to avoid by himself, so there's no point discussing this.
But for sure, if either Karin or Obito wasn't there, Danzo would have won

Oh no I'm sorry, I didn't mean damaged. You know how when you use MS, it affects your eyes, like they bleed and your vision gets blurry, like when premature MS Sasuke used Amaterasu and his eye started to bleed, that's the damage I meant.
