Madara doesn't know about or ever even met Itachi so there is nothing to talk about there. Kabuto made it clear that Nagato with limited mobility is right under Madara and Itachi was right under or tied with Nagato. Obito had the chakra to maintain his sharingan at all times(no small feat mind you as it exhausts people rather quickly), he also during the 4th shinobi war climax used kamui for practically the entire day(note I didn't say nonstop), and kept the tailed beats under his genjutsu control something that would require a massive amount of chakra. Yeah, he totally didn't have the chakra to do almighty push never mind when he had the 10 tails. And don't even get me going on Madara his chakra levels were way beyond everyone else in the manga. As for Obito's comment on Itachi knowing about Kamui, it wasn't a recognition of Itachi being superior power wise but rather a comment about Itachi's strategizing as he would have been able to work around kamui and thus kill him. Simply put, Obito was caught by surprise by the trap and was just lucky that Itachi didn't know about how it worked mechanically else he would have been killed. Obito and Itachi in a straight up fight is different than talking about knowledge of traps. Nagato when immobilized(a.k.a. Pain) is under Madara this is a simple fact(and since Madara recognized Obito as an equal we can put him on this as well), however Itachi being Pain's level is not true. In the Akatsuki Itachi was the 3rd most powerful, Obito being 1st,Pain being 2nd, and Itachi being 3rd.
