That is a non sequitur.
Because of Viktor's age, he was able to match (or exceed, according to you) the young hybrid.
In other words, a hybrid transformation gives a 0-day vampire/lycan such a significant enhancement that he is able to contend with a 1500+ year old elder. And remember, Michael was a med student who had no experience or skill.
Marcus is already older than Viktor, combined with the hybrid transformation, its no contest.
As for skill, maybe if a sword was involved, I can see an argument being made for Viktor. But this is an unarmed melee, Marcus will tank everything Viktor can dish out. He has already shown he can take a whole magazine of bullets to the face and recover instantly.
