Somehow all former SOLDIERs find themselves fighting it out in ShinRa's lvl 49 training room.
Cloud Strife is at Advent Children lvl and will fight with the First Tsurugi. Genesis has his broadsword and Angeal uses the Buster Sword.
Sephiroth is at the level of power he was during the Nibelheim incident. Zack Fair is at the lvl of power he was before he was ambushed by the ShinRa armada. Zack will also have the buster sword, since his katana is weaker than all the other weapons and has a tendency to break which wouldn't be fair.
Zack has beaten both Angeal and Genesis, then got owned by Sephiroth, Sephiroth should beable to hold off both G and A, if not beat them, then it depends on who wins out of Zack and Cloud, imo, AC Cloud wins

While Sephiroth can beat both Angeal and Genesis, I do not think he could do it before Cloud beat Zack, remember, Cloud is basically Zack with more experience, power, and feats.
I do not think Sephiroth can take the team of three after that.
Hard to tell, because we don't see Sephiroth going all-out, Sephiroth was known as a Hero, and was basically a legend to people all over the planet, even Cloud said this in FF7 about CC Sephiroth
"Sephiroth's strength is unreal. He is far stronger in reality then any story you might have heard about him. "
While that is true, you have to wonder how strong Cloud was after he inherited Zack's skills and Buster Sword. He was already naturally very strong, surprisingly so. And then there is all the strength he gained in FFVII, and maybe AC.
In fact, I would say Cloud in AC is stronger than CC Seph, yeah.
That was said during FF7, so unless he got that much stronger in the events of FF7,
The FF7 team in AC got even weaker, Cloud got alot weaker, but got his FF7 strength back in the last fight.
Tifa: "Two years ago, think of the strength we all had when we fought that last battle. It's only been a couple of years, but already that feeling is gone. But Cloud, I think he's found it again. "
Well you have to really wonder if what Cloud said about Sephiroth was really true. He said that there is no way he could have defeated Sephiroth, when he in fact did. And also, I believe Cloud did get much stronger.
He said that when he was wondering how he was alive, and Sephiroth was dead during the Nibelheim incident, in reality, he didn't exactly defeat Sephiroth, Sephiroth was insane and was in delusional talking to his "mother" after owning Zack, when Cloud somehow got behind him and stabbed him through the back with the buster sword then he stabbed through Cloud and leaped into the lifestream, thats how he died, well he didn't exactly "die" his body disintegrated in the lifestream and his conscience just wandered the lifestream, then he reformed his body at the nothern crator.

Just remember how Cloud believed he faced Sephiroth. He thought he faced Sephiroth face to face 1 on 1. When in fact all he did was fatally wound a Sephiroth who not only had his guard down, but had no idea Cloud was there.
how exactly did Crisis Core shat on previously established canon?
What do you mean? This was the whole canon story the entire time.
Cloud thought he faced Sephiroth because he had Zacks memories, thats why he was all confused on how he was alive and Sephiroth was dead, because Zack lost to Sephiroth.
