Now that I think about it, kakashi has pretty much went up against all of the akatsuki members, more members than anyone else has. Kakashi really seems to be on his game lol. Who hasn't he gone up against though? I don't think he's gone up against sassori of the red sand
Even if he didn't actually do combat with kisame he was still up againt him and plannning tactics ya know. I was watching the episode kakashi vs pain and that's when I thought about how he's fought almost all of them lol
Lol watch the fight again, deva owned him in cqc by stabing his shoulder, then he sent him into rubbles first time then sent him into rubbles second time this time permanently and he committed suicide.
Kakashi had Deva Path beat. Had stunned Asura path, Deva had no clue where he was. Kakashi would have been able to go in for the kill. Chouza and Chouji showing up ruined his plan, but he thought it was going to save his chakra. Turns up it just wound up getting him killed.

Yes it's true...but he got owned mostly xd
ANd let's not forget about Jiraiya (he fought Itachi and Kisame, and he owned Konan, besides, he defeated 3 peins)

Lets talk cannon not hypotetical scenerio. Cannon shows deva owned kakashi and chouji and chouza didn't ruin his plan (the plan he made w/o full knowledge on deva) they even help'd him
So, what exactly was Deva/Asura going to do to get themselves out of this?

Kakashi has shown more times than we can count that he can develop counters to abilities once he knows how they work. Here are some examples.

And as he shows against Deva path, he even came up with a 2nd plan to beat him after his first was interrupted:

There's no legitimate reason to believe that Kakashi doesn't win/end the fight if Chouza and Co don't show up. He had the complete upper hand. He had the element of surprise. He had his strategy planned out. Asura was stunned. The raikiri was ready to go. He would have been capable of ending the fight.
