The commentators Kako/Kazama confirmed Ninomiya > Kage. Without a black trigger, Kuga still lost to Murakami in the solo combat rounds after their rank battle. It's pretty clear that Ninomiya the No.2 in all of Border will defeat Kuga.

Otherwise Kuga would be equal to the No.2 in all of Border without a BT. At that point, his training with Konami would be unnecessary lol.
