After he learned the forms, Zuko more than held his own against Azula several times when she went specifically for him. He asked Katara for back up because you can never be too careful, especially against someone like Azula. And neither of them were as powerful as Ozai was, and I know this because we saw all 3 bend under the same comet and comparison was therefore easy. I believe both Zuko and Azula would eventually surpass Ozai (barring mental breakdowns), but at that point they hadn't done it yet.
