Then again, it has always been implied that the Volturi leaders have never had to be personally involved in a physical battle in a long while due to their seemingly unbreakable victory streak. We can all assume that the Volturi were so use to being victorious, that they (the leaders especially) were not prepared if the portion of their most powerful guards were destroyed as to that they would have no other choice but to be physically involved. Not to mention having gotten use to being victorious and usually never having to get involved physically relying mostly on the guards, could have also caused whatever fighting skills many of the ancient members have to somewhat diminish over time.

Plus, Caius was outnumbered by 1 to 3 and was completely caught off guard by Garrette and especially by Kate while he attacked Tanya.
