The thing about Kimimaro is that he was a _great_ taijutsu fighter. Great, really really good.

And he was paired up to fight with the sloppiest, brainless fighter in the series - Naruto; whose techique consists in making a bunch of clones and rushing to the enemy. Of course Kimimaro kicked his ass.

What could be interesting would be to see a normal fight between Lee and Kimimaro... no Seals, no Sake, just taijutsu and, in Kimi's case, his bloodline limit. I don't think Lee would be at such disadvantage then...

Maybe Kimimaro's weakness would be distance-fighters, but then again he can (eww) fire his fingertips and the spider-man dude that Neji fought was that kind of fighter and yet admited that he got whooped by Kimi.

BTW, full armor Kyubi Naruto vs. Kimi - advantages? No?
