But in FIGHTING? With taijutsu? Neji would have it on Sakura cause: 1. Lee STILL can't beat Neji. 2. Sakura's technique relies solely on chakra and control of it. 3. Neji's technique is specifically designed to ROB you of your chakra usage.
Naruto's over Sakura because his taijutsu involves kage bunshin. If she were fighting Naruto, she'd have to take out 1000 of him, likely repeatedly. The kage bunshins work in tandem, so all she has to do is get set up by one and they can combo her for days. Add the fact that he heals like Wolverine, never gives up, and has an exponentially greater amount of chakra and you get the fact that he can EASILY outlast Sakura.
Her strength is amazing, but it's useless if you can't hit what you're aiming at. She was WITH Naruto and they couldn't beat Kakashi TOGETHER. Neji's speed is comparable, if not superior to that of Lee's. Sasuke's now likely faster than them both.
The reason it's doubtful she could beat an Anbu straight up is that she's NOT Anbu level. She's not even Jounin level yet. She's getting there, but she's no Tsunade (yet). And unlike Naruto, who trains best OUTSIDE of Konoha, and is underestimated to begin with, Sakura trains directly under the Hokage. So if her skills warranted her beating any Jounin or Anbu, she would have been taking the test for it, or Tsunade would have promoted her, or something like that.
Don't get me wrong; Sakura is GREAT now. She's no longer the most unimpressive and weakest of the rookie 9, I'm sure. I'm sure she could take out most chuunin. But she hasn't gone from weakest to toughest. she doesn't have it like THAT.

I know exactly what you mean with this... however the image that springs to my perverted old mind isn't exactly fighting

My goodness that's deliciously naughty. But seriously, there's a fic on aff.net that has that. I think it's called Make Me Forget? There's a link in the Great Narusaku ficlist for it. It was awesome.
On another note, Sakura is not at the level where it's ridiculous, on the violence scenario, rather, like some feel Akane of Ranma 1/2 fame to be with her violence and rough treatment. Narusegawa is another that falls under that scope.
and yeah, she's tough, but she's ALSO not meant to be a front-line fighter. Remember what Tsunade said. Your goal is to survive to treat your allies. Avoid being hit, don't fight. etc. Her true genius lies in medicine. she healed up Kankuro immediately, something that all of Suna couldn't do, and she had extra antidote for the battle. Now THAT's impressive.

Err, I'm not sure I agree with that. Sakura could probably beat Neji. She's got some wicked skills now, and I'm sure that even a few of the ANBU would fall to her. And I'm pretty sure that if Sasuke didn't have the Sharingan, she could be him too. She can level BUILDINGS, for crip's sake.
Just because she can level buildings doesn't mean she can beat Neji and some ANBU. The strength is pointless if you can't have your fist connect to them.

LMAO... talk about unintended perverted undertones, lol.
And yeah, Naru and Akane are worse. But you gotta remember, they're in romantic comedies. They gotta be violent, or it wouldn't be humorous. And they're not NEARLy as bad as some people make them out to be (I hate Narubashing and Akanebashing!)
