Is Kaiser on Par with Rin (A Genius)?

In the recent chapter Rin manipulated Isagi to reel Kaiser in with their chemical reaction. Engaging a one-on-one with Kaiser by crashing into him.

At this point Rin outclasses people in 1v1s. Naturally a TL can’t beat a genius individually so how was Kaiser able to clear the ball?

Feel free to pitch in and correct me on any misassumptions.
