Both characters have factors in the downfall of their time as Jinchuriki.
Obito's downfall was that his battle prowess gets swayed by emotions. His main goal was not necessarily to invoke Infinite Tsukuyomi, but to hear Naruto's answer. With that reason alone, he failed to defeat the Shinobi Alliance and lost to Sasuke's sword of solo kings. I never actually considered Obito a serious threat to the protagonist because his loss was clearly inevitable. Sure, his power was over whelming, but I never felt any danger from Obito. However, a good trait of Obito was that he was more serious/focused when it comes to combat as opposed to Madara who has been screwing around like he's always been since he was revived via Edo Tensei. It can be a good trait in some ways because I honestly find it funny and enjoyable to see his lust for strong opponents, but Madara has been screwing around too much where the story progression is slowing down.
When it comes to feats as a Jinchuriki, Obito has more raw destructive capacity. Juubito went all out, but all of his techniques were successfully countered. He was too focused on raw power as opposed to thinking straight. Think about it, Juubito never needed to waste all his time on the Rose bomb, the 6 sun Barrier, the sword of Nunoboko, etc. Juubito (if he wanted to) could have Onmyoudon blitzed everyone if he wanted to. He was too focused making showing absolute despair and made it look like it was hopeless for the Alliance. But that reason is where his downfall started. He wasn't thinking straight enough to realize that the barrier only made it easier for the alliance to survive. If I were Obito, I would have simply made another flower and shot more Bijuubombs instead of showing off his abilities. That would have guaranteed the death of the alliance. Ever since Obito became the Jinchuriki, he forgot about standard battle tactics. That is Juubito's con.
But like I said, Madara has been screwing around for too long. However he literally defeated Minato, Tobirama, Naruto and Sasuke (the people who took most part in defeating Juubito) with using his bare hands. He's not so focused on showing off his power like Obito did, nor does he want to show absolute despair to everyone. He has one thing on his mind and that is the fruit. He's now just killing time until the fruit blooms so he can eat it. But with the way the story is going as of recent, "killing time" may be Madara's defeat.
