What's this? an actually interesting versus debate? what happened?

Sakura has by far the easier win condition (punch Kakashi once and it's over), but Kakashi has by far the greater skill set to deal with that. Means both have to fight to the very best of their abilities to win.

I think Sakura has the slight edge here, though. As the second bell test showed, Kakashi has trouble with Sakura's overwhelming strength. He would have to outplay Sakura quite hard, and i'm not convinced his finishing move (chidori, or whatever his Purple lightning is now) would actually kill Sakura. Going by her immense healing ability, Kakashi would need multiple hits. Given her immense strength, i don't see many ninjutsu holding her back. Going by Tsunade's fight against Madara, she could take incredible risks and basically charge straight at him. Then again, kakashi's arsenal is impressive and his experience immense. They know each other's moves for sure, but Kakashi gains much more out of this than Sakura.

So my verdict? close to a 50/50 fight.
