The way I see it, Cuphead generally plays a range game whereas Peppino typically gets physical unless he gets a gun. Cuphead's standard attacks from what I can recall have a high rate of fire, so it's unlikely that Peppino would be able to get a good Mach Run in, and parrying is not ideal for Peppino since he'll likely get smoked if he went for that strat. At the same time, Cuphead has no physical means of attack aside from his parries and the homing missile form he takes on. This is from basing it on the games themselves. Cuphead's parries only works on specifically-glowing pink projectiles, and considering none of Peppino's attacks are pink in any way, that's rendered useless.

What I do think Peppino would benefit from would be the difference between how he handles characters of comparable strengths as opposed to Cuphead. See, Cuphead would die if he gets beaten by foes whereas the worst I've seen happen to Peppino is get knocked out. This should give Peppino a defensive edge over Cuphead. Either way, I still think would be a difficult fight that, based on their wincons, would most likely be a stalemate, so I'll consider this match inconclusive.
