Just because Ise is stronger doesn't mean he's better than Kiba in everything. People specializes in different skill set, so it's not really fair to use strength to measure for overall capability.

Kiba doesn't have Ise's level of strength and endurance. Similarly, Ise doesn't have Kiba's level of swordsmanship and speed. If Ise can actually be better than Kiba who specializes in swordsmanship and speed than that would be an asspull. It's like saying Ise is able to surpass Rose and Le Fay in magic.
