@Marc Zaddy, if Obito held back too much, Kakashi would have noted it just like he noted that Itachi wasn't fighting like normal when they were fighting Itachi's clone.

Besides, it would have been the easiest thing to let Kakashi stab him right after they got into Kamui, when Kakashi nearly did but Obito made him hesitate. Obito even used Genjutsu to put Kakashi's hand through his chest. Why use Genjutsu? Why not finish off the seal right there?

So I somewhat call bullcrap on him directing the fight like that. Maybe he allowed the last Raikiri to pierce him, but the rest of the fight? I'd say it was still holding pretty even. Obito should have won, but it was still an overall even fight.
