Not so, to be honest. Whilst yes, Sonic has dealt with robots with similar weaponry and stuff, Mega Man's in a completely different league to them- he's faster, stronger and smarter than a vast majority of the robot mooks Sonic usually fights. Plus, Mega Man has taken on and beaten Gods as well- namely Ra Moon (Super Adventure Rockman) and Sunstar, along with the Stardroids (Mega Man VI on the Gameboy). Not up to the level of say, Solaris or Dark Gaia, but they're still very, very powerful opponents that Mega Man was able to beat without needing a super form.

As for Mega Man's weapons, I agree- I'm not saying he should have every single weapon he's ever had. What I was getting at, was that he does still have plenty of weapons that are well-suited to defeating fast and agile opponents, as he has done in the past- Quick Man, Metal Man, Needle Man, Slash Man, Charge Man, Turbo Man, Nitro Man and Pluto, just to name a few.

Considering Quick Man's top speed has been stated to be somewhere around Mach 5 and Mega Man still defeated him, he'd certainly be able to adapt to Sonic's speed and disable it accordingly. Then once that happens, he'll be easy pickings. Sonic might be fast, but against an opponent who can keep track of him and has various means of slowing or entirely disabling his speed (Ice Slasher, Time Slow/Stopper, Flash Stopper, Concrete Shot, Spark Shock), he loses a lot of the advantage.
