I understand your point. Itachi is extremely powerful, he has versatile abilities and can fight anyone. Yet, Madara has answers to all of those abilities. Madara effectively dealt with most of Itachi's abilities, quite easily I must add. He effortlessly dealt with Sasuke's blaze release, managed to blitz Sage Naruto and Lee with no eyes and even evade most of EMS Sasuke's strikes with no eyes, allow himself to get stabbed to converse with Sasuke, then immediately disappear.

The only method that Itachi has of defeating Madara is to pierce him with the TB, which is much much harder than it sounds. Madara was able to effectively counter the Raikage's maximum speed, the TB is extremely unlikely to hit Madara.
