For one, Susanoo isn't just chakra (it manifest/materializes the users chakra into an ethereal warrior...everyone's "normal" chakra is usually blue butt the susanoo's differ because it manifest the users chakra/personality/etc into a warrior). It's never stated that it is either. So the thing about the Hyuuga being able to pierce through isn't a complete yes.

The Hyuuga can detect genjutsu, butt breaking out of it is a different story (they have to stop their own chakra flow, then someone else has to disrupt their chakra or they have to cause intense pain to themselves). Can a Hyuuga break out of the genjutsu fast enough to not be killed by the Uchiha who is freely moving?

Rotation is a very very good defense butt has an obvious drawback. The user has to stop spinning eventually. As most ppl stated, Uchiha uses fire, Hyuuga uses rotation. The Uchiha can simply wait until they're donenough ow a kunai/use a jutsu/etc, make the user continue to use rotation (draining chakra). Similar to how Kidomaru did Neji. Assuming it's a main branch member anyway (if i recall, this, 64/128 palms and the air palm are all main branch techniques). My main point with this being, any non-main branch member doesn't really stand much of a chance against an average Uchiha (since they weren't taught any high lvl abilities).

In a taijutsu fight, a Hyuuga has an advantage (lethal blow, chakra point hits, etc). That's assuming he ever even hits the Uchiha. With the sharingan, they're basically able to predict what anyone will do. Kakashi (3 tomoe) was able to see every hit that Neji did, so most likely an Uchiha would be able to dodge/counter/outmaneuver the gentle fist (remember, the sharingan can see chakra as well,so they'll see the extended hits a Hyuuga would try to make). Sasuke (3 tomoe) was able to see initial chakra Naruto's actions and counter effectively (when he went 1T, he was able to see/read his movements butt wasn't able to properly defend against the chakra, since it had a mind of it's own).

During the flashbacks and scenes from this time period (that Skoob617 mentioned), about every Uchiha had 3 tomoe (that we were able to see). Not only that butt some were shown doing using other natures besides fire (since the sharingan allows them to copy techniques). They're also highly skilled with almost any weapon (mainly shuriken). Since almost every single Uchiha at the time was seen with 3 tomoe, I think we're using that as the basis for an avg Uchiha right? If so, then overall, I'd have to rule in favor of the Uchiha winning butt the Hyuuga would put up a damned good fight!

To break it down: Hyuuga (Basic): Can see chakra flow/points/color and great distances (360 vision). Disrupt/control that chakra (if the hit connects). Gentle Fist (cause lethal blows and the aforementioned abilities I said above). Close range fighters Hyuuga (Main): Everything from above and rotation, air palm, 64/128 palms. All attributes are increased. Close-Mid (slightly) range fighters

Uchiha (3 tomoe): Can predict/read opponents movements. Copy taijutsu/ninjutsu (that's within their own ability). Skilled with weapons (kenjutsu i think), fire based jutsu and genjutsu. Close to long range fighters. Uchiha (MS): Everything from above and Izanagi/Izanami. All attributes are increased. Close to long range fighters. (If there were some at this time, there are some anime only MS users).

The Uchiha have more of an advantage overall than the Hyuuga.

Firstly though they r spinning they still have the byakugun and thus if they react fast enough they can dodge it. And we don't know for sure how good Hyuga are with genjutsu. For all we know they'd be able to break even strong genjutsu. And firstly its not like all Uchihas are experienced with genjutsu. Just cuz Kakashi who we know was a very strong shinobi seen it doesn't mean he could avoid them even though I'm not suggesting he couldn't. Sasuke seen Lee's movement and he busted that ass.
