Anywho, to the topic at hand if you're talking about pre-DMS Kakashi then there is a huge list of people that can defeat him. All of the Akatsuki except for Hidan and possibly Konan. Madara, Hashirama, Naruto, Sasuke, Jiraiya, all of the Hokages except for maybe Tsunade. Orochimaru, Gaara, Sage mode Kabuto, Raikage, Killer bee, Ay, Onoki, Danzo, Shisui. Shit, it's way too many people to really list them all. Most people that are considered top tier status can beat him (i.e Most kage, S-ranked ninja, legendary ninja, demi-gods, gods, etc.) I think War-arc Kakashi is above Deidara, Sasori and Hidan. I don't know about Konan because I neither contributed to nor followed the Kakashi vs. Konan thread. But while skimming through the thread, it seems that the consensus is that Konan beats Kakashi. I haven't bothered to read the comments on that thread so I'm in no position to explain how that is the case. It's also not entirely clear how powerful Black Zetsu actually is. Kakashi eats White Zetsu for breakfast, but BZ is a really sneaky one and he did paralyze Juubidara. So I think the jury is still out on BZ. Every Akatsuki member other than those mentioned above can easily take on Kakashi, though.

Regarding the Hokages, ALL OF THEM beat Kakashi (Tsunade included). Tsunade's Strength of a Hundred Seals is going to insure that she'll outlast Kakashi quite easily. Just one hit of her monstrous attack is enough to severely injure Kakashi. Also, there's some doubt about Mei beating Kakashi. She definitely has vastly superior destructive capabilities, but we haven't seen enough of her to conclude that she can handle Kakashi's strategies and tricks. Also, I have my doubts about Gaara. Sure he's powerful, has extremely strong defence, and his Sand Burial and other jutsus are extremely powerful. But I think Kakashi can circumvent around Gaara's abilities and defeat him.
