Sakura has shown to dodge those high speed senbon from Sasori, evade all those arms at the last second from the Thousand Arm jutsu from Sasori, dodge and quickly counter some Sasori's 100 puppets, react fast when at the moment of the portal to lava dimension waa opened and mot only move herself but pick up Obito too (albeit a bit got on her. As a medical-nin evasive skills are key. Now as for the Gentle Fist. How was that ever stated to be a high ranking taijutsu, effective yes bit it was never stated to be high ranking. Now are you saying that as a Hyūga you'd be a great taijutsu fighter? No that is not true because Hinata was at best average taijutsu in Part I. Now she has indeed become better at taijutsu, may I say above average but no wear near master. I like how you say it's all over for Sakura when Hinata gets is close combat with her. What makes you so positive, and don't say because of her fighting style because it all goes about pulling it off. Sakura may not be super fast but she is not slow (movement) to just continuously get hit by Hinata. And that's ignorant to say that there will be no battle if it's not intent on killing. Sakura's fighting style is that (power). Hinata's fighting atyle is more of immobilizing. This is no death match as far as we are aware but we know of the character's personality and trademark patterns of fighting. And what makes you so sure Hinata would "easily" evade the devastating landscape attack. That's being pushy. Also the 32 or 64 or even 128 palm jutsu is not a always hit move so I don't know what you're going on about how there will be no opening. Also while Sakura hasn't used Katsuyu for distraction or help in battle (besides medical calls), it's her summon, why wouldn't she? Also even if she used a summon, it doesn't make her any more a coward than Jiraiya who often uses summons so don't be a hyprocrite. Also why rank doesn't necessarily mean anything, we can take into consiseration that the fact that Sakura who is apparently weaker than Hinata became a jonin and even years later Hinata still hasn't rised to the occassion. It's not like there were exceptions. I mean even Lee who was said to be a failure or even not be a ninja became a jonin.
