Anakin Skywalker vs Naga Sadow

ROTS Anakin, prime Sadow. All-out fight, to the death. Battle takes place on neutral ground, starting distance of 10 yards.

Who wins and why?

Ursumeles Traitor

Anakin, 10/10.
More powerful, outclasses Naga physically, and specially with the blade.

Sadow wins. More versatile sorcery such as illusions, more raw power thanks to him possessing the same amulets that Kun did and the implications that he and the Ancients are more powerful than Nihilus. Plus from the spirits of Kun, Muur, and Ragnos one can indicate alive! Sadow is at least a peer to those spirits who defeated powerful opponents such as JA Luke and Vong Krayt. Spirit Muur had enough power to make Vader consider taking down 19bby Palps.

Sadow's only chance here is sorcery.

Bar playing with Anakin's mind through Sorcery or some such, Sadow is flat-out inferior.

How is Anakin outclassing Sadow physically?
When Sadow managed to stalemate Ludo Kressh in a duel. And this Kressh easily shattered into pieces a Sith blade(which is capable of competing with a lightsabre)
Sadow's mere presence also tainted his Sith blade making it poisonous. Sadow left behind dark side energies in his tomb, over a millennium after his death. Most impressive is the fact that over a thousand years later, these lingering dark energies are still capable of driving Barel Ovair half-insane.
Vitiate(after consuming Medriaas' Force energies) still deemed the ancient Sith as a threat to his power.
I don't think that Anakin has it 10/10.
Unless you believe the 'Mortiso-mano-Mortiso' theory.

A Sith blade can only hold off a lightsaber when amplified by the essence/power of the user, which Kressh's blade wasn't at the time.

That doesn't weaken the argument. That guy still crushed in fragments a warblade.

On a Dark Side nexus. Anakin could do the same casually.

Being on a Dark Side nexus it's irrelevant. To be amplified by the dark side nexus; you have to be willing to use it. It is evidenced in KotOR 2 on Dxun(when you have the chance to immerse yourself into the miasma of dark side energies)
You have to choose to use the nexus.
Do you have any scans or quotes to state that Kressh, outrightly, used the malevolent nexus? It's not the first time in EU when characters show overwhelming physical strength(like Exar Kun or Ulic Qel-Droma)
As about the Sith warblades:
They are alchemized to withstand lightsabre attacks via Sith magic(the dark side energies are already there). So, Kressh did not amplify his warblade against Sadow. Kressh destroyed a Sith blade via his own physical strength.

Thank God Star Wars: The Force and Destiny, Yoda: Dark Rendezvous and a plethora of other sources note the effects of a Dark Side nexus are strictly passive. It passively amps Dark Siders and hinders Light Siders, however both can draw on it if willing. And why wouldn't Kressh draw on it? He was clearly in a state of rage.

Quote for it alchemically being enhanced, and only through those means. Also I'd like an example of this stone-sword parrying a lightsaber. It has never happened to my knowledge.
And it's not like this is some awe-inspiring feat, and certainly not one Anakin couldn't perform with ease.

I.
1. Keep that in mind(about nexuses) when there is the instance when Sidious turns to bone three Dark Side Prophets.
2. And to you, "passively amps" translates to "immediately amps"? Even then, the amp is insignificant.
3. Do you have any scans to say that he did? Because the author would have definitely written that down if it was the case.
II.

1. "A Sith sword is enhanced by submerging it in a trough of "blood spilled in anger." Grinding its edge with Svolten rhyolite will ensure it never dulls."-Sorzus Syn
So, she clearly says that it must be done before wielding such one.
2. And why would you say it is made of stone? It is clearly made of metal. Sadow's or Kressh's warblades are no different than the one which you find in KotOR(which could be Sadow's) and use against your enemies.
I guess it's because the old drawing style of that time. It resembles a bit as if they're made of stone; but they are not.

1. His raw power has nothing to do with the amulets. The amulets will be imbued only by his dark side energies.
2. Kreia's opinion is infallible as well. Besides that; she's not aware of the resulted power gained by Nihilus. It's very possible that she was referring to Nihilus' Force drain mastery; not his personal power. But even then; she has no clue how much has Nihilus advanced in mastering the Force drain technique.
3. Yes. Even Vitiate(post-Nathema) deemed Naga Sadow a threat to his power. Vitiate>/=Sadow>Anakin

Anakin dominates Sadow in sabers and humbles him with the force
