Not at all.

As i've stated before, each 'hog has blow-by-blow counters for another, making them a foil to another combatant. This is a match similar to the Pokemon Battle Royale, except a clear outcome can be determined from their skills and arsenal.

Sonic counters Shadow, by outmaneuvering him with his superior speed and the ability to use Chaos Control.

Shadow counters Silver by hurling unreflectable Chaos Spears at him, which he just can't stop.

Silver counters Sonic by using Telekinesis to render Sonic's speed a moot point.

The question is this- who is best equipped to deal with being attacked by the one theyre strong against, while attacking the one they're weak against? Each combatant is going to want their counter dead first. In this case, Silver falls first, seeing as his speed simply doesn't compare to the other two and he has to focus on one 'hog or the other. He can't both stop Sonic from attacking him and attack Shadow at the same time. At which point we're left with Sonic vs Shadow. Given that Sonic counters Shadow, it leaves the victory pretty clear cut for Sonic. There's a reason Sonic keeps winning in their fights.
