Could Dumbledore have stopped Voldemort?

Albus Dumbledore’s the most obvious person who can defeat Voldemort without even sweating (not that he has much sweat left, anyway). Rowling herself has explicitly stated in the books that Dumbledore is the only person Voldemort fears since he’s actually no match against him squarely.

Who would win Dumbledore or Voldemort?

Definitely Dumbledore. Dumbledore in his old age was more than able to hold his own against Voldemort in his prime, so I believe its fair to say that should Dumbledore have been in his prime and was required to duel Voldemort (no horcruxes), he wouldve been able to defeat Voldemort like he did Grindelwald.

Did Dumbledore taunt Voldemort before the duel?

What happened to Voldemort’s curse on Harry?

Voldemort attempts several times to direct his curse (still locked and clashing with Dumbledore’s own spell) towards Harry, with lightning-like tendrils popping off from the main beam, but is unsuccessful and instead hits three fireplaces near Harry, causing tiles to explode and parts of the fireplace to come crashing down on the wooden floors.

How did Voldemort turn into a snake and kill Dumbledore?

Dumbledore then cast a fiery rope around Voldemort, which Voldemort transfigured into a snake and sent after Dumbledore. The snake served as an attack and as a distraction for Voldemort to Disapparate and Apparate in the middle of the fountain, sending another Killing Curse at Dumbledore.
