I think Diavolo can win, 'tho no without  taking some heavy damaglios in the process. The scenario I'm picturing is as follows:

DIO v Diavolo: Epitaph acticates and diavolo sees DIO screaming ZA WARUDO and himself turned into a donut within the next ten seconds, thus he activates time skip. From that instant onwards he has a couple of seconds to cripple DIO in some fashion so he can survive the incoming time stop. Nos it's DIO's turn, he will recover his agency as soon as time is stopped but he's now damaged and somewhat confused, now, Diavolo had to get in range to acomplish that and that means DIO has 9 seconds worth of free attacks, but since he's crippled he can't finish off Diavolo and as soon as the time stop ends the timeframe of skipped time resumes, this gives the opportunity Diavolo needs to finish off DIO.

Basically I'm giving it to Diavolo since epitaph should give him the first shot
