Lets get some things right... the monkier that Kisame is a 'Tailed Beast without Tail' was given to Chojoro, but in real sense he has shown nothing to earn that monkier.

Kisame fought against a real tailed Beast, Gyuki and KillerB didnt even have to go full beast mode to deal with Kisame, even when he had gone on and fused with Samehada. the monkier is probably to do with the fact that he possess Samehada which constantly absorbs chakra from opponents, be it directly from them or thier jutsu, and supplies it to Kisame. the chakra that is continuosly refilled makes an illusion of him possessing Biju level chakra

Kisame has high level of chakra but the monkier was pure hyperbole.

on topic...

if Kisame has Samehada at his side than no version of Kakashi wins, without Samehada he most certainly will lose to war arc Kakashi.
