Sra Neji wrecks Haku, he is supremely overrated.
Her best jutsu, ice mirrors, will be useless against Byakugan+Jyuken.

Zabuza, who is on par with Kakashi, stated himself that Haku is more skilled then he is, and stronger then Kakashi, a Jonin tier. At the absolute minimum, the manga outright states that Haku is already in Jonin class.

The manga also established that Jonin's are still well above even SRA Neji's league, seeing as it took the entire Sound 4 to high-diff two Jonin, and Neji could only extreme high diff one of them, whom he stated to be so much stronger then he was.

Haku in the war-arc was fast enough to parry Gai's and Lee's kicks, and even intercept Kakashi, who is far more faster and conditioned then his early part 1 self. With actual killing intent and blood lust (which he didn't have in part1), Haku destroys part 1 Neji.

Damn, but Haku was defeated by K0 Naruto whom neji managed to take on for a while, also Sasuke did get a few hits on him before he used his mirror technique, and even then 2t Sasuke managed to intercept and hit him in addition to saving Naruto's life.

What do make of those?

Nah, from the very start Haku was going soft on them. He never at any pointed wanted to actually kill them.

He stood no chance like he "thought" to himself.

"I can't withstand his chakra anymore"(Which means he was before but couldn't keep up)

"I am finished"

"Your tool has failed you"

Him thinking to himself clearly shows that he couldn't win for sure.

OP: Neji would take it in my opinion but certainly won't write-off Haku if it comes to that which I doubt. The Naruto/Sasuke situation taken into account, Haku is skilled and didn't want to kill Sasuke and Naruto. However one can argue that the Haku's great use of his weapon is the main thing to look at when we discuss him not wanting to kill especially considering the fact that he used his most powerful technique. His weapon and not necessarily his full abilities was vital as shown with Zabuza and explained in this entire scan, especially the middle

Neji could pull off things Jounin level Shinobi's couldn't do like stated in the bottom left , managed to defeat a Shinobi like Kidoumaru despite the location completely being against him, Kidomaru fighting style being a perfect counter to his (even though we saw what happened from close range against Neji) and surpassed the entirety of the Main Branch which was seen long time by his father at a tender age to the extent where he was recognized by the Third hokage and Orochimaru even warned Kidomaru about him --Indeed Neji has the hype and can back it up with feats and his defensive capabilities as 2T Sasuke kept surprising Haku and surpassed him when it came to speed without his Ice Crystal mirror. When that came up, he reacted to him several times leaving Haku surprised as he said

Even Zabuza knowing Haku's full potential suggested he and Sasuke may be equal because of his remarkable development and we know how inferior that Sasuke is to Neji:

But how would Neji win? Need to link actual combat feats/counters to Haku's arsenal, rather than simple praise. I preach this to everyone. Even the weakest shinobi by portrayal can defeat the strongest if he/she has the necessary tools.

Lol what? Neji was tracking 5G Lee with his Byakugan and the likes of 2T Sasuke couldn't even read Base Lee's movements. Yet that same Sasuke was already reading Haku's movements at top speed as he stated and canonically reacted to his speed and then hit him back while saving Naruto in the Ice mirror. Neji has the defense and the ability to react to him with ease further outlasting his Ice Crystal mirror as he stated the limit was almost up Let's not forget Haku used Naruto as bait in order to hit Sasuke as he "thought to himself" was the best way when it came to hitting Sasuke or so. Once that's dropped, Haku stand no chance since Neji can arguably land hit on him while he tries to attack within the mirror if Sasuke could. Let's not forget Neji's quick detection of chakra within his field of vision.

What you preach to everyone is how Suigetsu can possibly defeat Orochimaru with this logic? Seriously?

You realize my post presented no shade, yet you threw shade for no reason. If you want to get stupid in regards to insults when I've not said a negative thing to you so be it child.

Speaking about Orochimaru, I forgot to mention that he warned Jounin level Kidomaru about Neji lol I'll add it to my post.

What shade? I wasn't throwing any shade and you did say that. If you stand by it, why take offense to what I said? I'm just trying to say the logic you've been preaching about is why you constantly ignore these things the manga presents to us from time to time.

I preach feat vs feat/ability vs ability, not simple words. Deidara admitted inferiority to Sasori yet it's quite debatable Deidara is the superior of the two.

This is a little hypocrite from me since i lost this in a debate against you lol. But imo, the databook retconned this, when it gave Haku a 20.5 overall, which is 10 points below Zabuza and 12 points below Kakashi.

I also agree with Haizaki's post. Sasuke out performed him without the mirror jutsu. And KN0 Naruto completely overwhelmed him, and KN0 Naruto is not overwhelming a jonin.
