Neji bitch smacks for the simple reason that his gentle fist negates any taijutsu that Sasuke could try against him and Part 1 Sasuke only used certain bukijutsu and fire style, both of which his rotation would negate. Power scaling won't work here since we don't have clear indications of their power, the most solid way is to compare their advantages. Neji's gentle fist could disable Sasuke's Sharingan as well since if he seals enough chakra points, Sasuke can't keep it active, which would discourage Sasuke from getting close. Sasuke's speed is moot against the combination of the Byakugan and the Gentle fist's naturally quick style. Not to mention that their intellect cancels each other out since they're both prodigies. Also, Sasuke was getting pimp slapped by Naruto in his 1-Tailed form until he went CS2. With these factors, this battle leans in Neji's favor.
