At the same time in the manga Sasuke got overwhelmed by Kinshiki and needed the other Kage to save him.And honestly, you really can't win the argument that Sasuke doesn't fair well against SPSM Naruto in taijutsu.He is far behind in every category.Think about it this way: Do you really think that Sasuke is so far above SM Naruto in taijutsu? Because he is not. He is faster, but in terms of tracking they are pretty much the same, except that Naruto has awareness of everything around him and not just of what he sees, and he is much more physically stronger. In SPSM not only he becomes a lot stronger, but then you add Kurama's chakra to the mix and he is blow out of proportions. Sasuke fought Kaguya with his PS, Naruto did it directly. This is why in the manga they only had Naruto encountering Momoshiki in taijutsu.Because he is the only logical guy to deal with him from the bunch. And the Kurama avatar is pure chakra, so there is no reason on why it couldn't be absorbed. Sure, maybe Momoshiki decided that it wasn't worth it since he couldn't drain Naruto not even when he was restrained, bu the fact that he also didn't absorb Sasuke's Susanoo shows that maybe he was not able to absorb chakra through the Lava Golem. Which makes sense, because he needs his rinnegan to be close in touch with the chakra he's absorbing.
