as shown at the bridge after danzo died, base Sasuke is was tied with Base Naruto in taijutsu, speed and strength. given the fact that they were each given half of the sages chakra, they should still be tied even now. Sasuke has amaterasu, naruto has rasenshuriken, sasuke has susanoo, naruto has tailed beast mode, sasuke has susanoo chidori, naruto has tailed beast ball. Their reservoir of techniques and fighting styles are what make them tied no matter what, outside of powers. Naruto has better stamina/chakra overall because it is what he had before PLUS the sages chakra, same with Sasuke albeit Sasuke was still weaker than Naruto before sage gift. So you have to figure the only reason Sasuke can keep up right now is because of his rinnegan and because of the sage gift. Naruto by logic and technicality should still be above him in stamina/chakra and physical aspects. Naruto should come out on top even if barely. and don't even say he was tired when he and naruto clashed because karin healed him and restored his chakra
