If i remember correctly, they were missing two swords though, Samehada and Hiramekarei. Those that Dai fought have all swords in their possesion. And also the ones that kakashi fought are edo not alive form. We all know Edo form is weaker than its alive counterpart. Well, there's no big difference. Maybe you have a point, 8 gates Guy was giving trouble to Madara while 8 gates Dai only managed to kill 4 swodsmen of the mist. Thus, 8 gates Gai > 8 gates Dai.
