Sakura easily. She surpassed a sannin and caught up to EMS Sasuke according to herself, portrayal and Kishi in databook 4. Hinata is what? A chunnin who is still weaker than Neji and Hanabi? How can Hinata, a regular chunnin in the rookie 9 compare with Sakura who is a jonin, surpassed the sannin and is on par with EMS Sasuke?

Even if we're talking about specific powers and skill and not general strength Sakura, contrary to popular belief, still has an advantage. Hinata would die when Sakura punches the ground. Sakura was fast enough to evade Sasori's puppets and Kaguya's chakra arms on her own and Sakura has her summoning and poisons as well as the AOE of her cherry blossom impact, all of which are mid-long ranged. Hinata has one canon mid ranged attack and that's the air palm which wouldn't help her here.

I have no idea where people get this from, that Hinata = hyuga = chakra blocking = Sakura loses easily. All ninja use chakra but apparently Sakura's weakness is a hyuga for some reason. Hinata needs to get close to Sakura to even try to block her chakra points and we all know how that would play out.

Shipping and favouritism aside, Sakura is not Hinata's rival. Sakura is the main girl, who became a jonin, surpassed the sannin and became the strongest kunoichi and best medical ninja in the world when she was only 16. Hinata is the love interest, weaker Hyuga who remained a chunnin and has 0 feats.
