@Itachi I'm pretty sure that scene was just done to give Tobirama a moment, not to mention the TSB was "stuck" to him I believe. Also, it's the fact that he was able to slip in and out of Konoha unnoticed, take out all those ANBU in an instant, control Kurama so easily, and hold his own against Minato in combat for some time that made Minato compare him to Madara. Also, in general everyone who has met Obito when he started going around calling himself Madara either believed him or still took him seriously and realized how powerful he was. Obito had MS, his abilities were enhanced by Hashirama's DNA (The Zetsu Body), and he had received some training from Madara I believe. So he wasn't weak at all. Regarding the rest, I don't see how the Sasuke example counts, both Itachi and Minato would wreck Sasuke at that point. Orochimaru was never once displayed to be at full power in the series and his intent was to steal his body, not kill him, so that doesn't really count. Overall, I'm pretty sure Minato would win in the end.
