But you could give a scenario, for example I think Jotaro would win using Polnareff's technique of blood drops or something similar like sweat, rocks, sand, etc. and when he realizes that the TE is over, he would use the TS to destroy it with blows, or outright use his superior speed (although I doubt the latter because he does not know where he is and also because he does not have the range that SC has with his sword) Since GE was able to react to KC's blows, I don't see why SP can't.

On the flip side, it's also possible Jotaro's cautiousness might work against him. If he takes too long to realize how King Crimson works and how to come up with a plan, then Epitaph will show Diavolo exactly what Jotaro's doing and King Crimson can skip it, leaving Jotaro exposed. Both of these Stands are so strong that they could effectively end the fight in one blow, it just depends on who gets that shot. The fact that Diavolo fervorously checks Epitaph gives him a huge advantage.
