Raiden has super human reflexes, super human strength, HF Blade, and lightening.
Hmm this is actually a hard one, but I would like to point out that Darth Vader does have Cybernetic enhancement.
Seeing the future > reflexes
No matter how good the reflex is a Jedi/Sith would see it coming and counter it
Super strength; brute force is pointless in a sword duel. Speed is always the key to win. Also, the HF blade would probably get cut by the laser when Raiden used all his strength to attack
Light Saber > HF Blade
The saber is lighter = faster, can't be cut (expect the hilt) and is stronger than metal.
Sith powers (which include lightning) > lightning

RAIDEN vs a JEDI PADAWAN
Raiden wins; the padawan lacks experience and isn't allowed to use unfair tactics
RAIDEN vs a JEDI MASTER
the Jedi wins, not even a fair fight
RAIDEN vs any SITH
the Sith wins, any dark power would kill Raiden in an instant
