"lots of natural energy entering Naruto" right... both of them put the maximum possible chakra into their respective attacks and guess what, the attacks cancelled each other despite Naruto's having a nature advantage, therefore Sasuke is equal. Naruto needed the natural energy just to counter Sasuke's power up. If Naruto was fresh, he wouldn't have needed to do that or conserve his power.

Kurama himself Naruto is exhausted from fighting the entire war, giving him another handicap over Sasuke. And if Naruto and Sasuke are equals: WHY DID KISHIMOTO KEEP EMPHASIZING NARUTO'S DISADVANTAGES AND WHY DID KISHIMOTO KEEP NARUTO CONSCIOUS AND SASUKE PASSED OUT AFTER THE FINAL CLASH?
