I think someone needs to read book 7...

Anyway, Sauron, hands down.

Look, Sauron didn't need no stinking horcruxes to avoid dying. Sauron was defeated (as in, corporeally destroyed) two times in the ages before the 3rd age of man. Once when he assumed the form of a Vampire, and once after he persuaded the Numenorians to assail Valinor and Numenor was destroyed. After the 2nd time, he could no longer assume fair form, but he COULD and did come back. The third time he was destroyed, by Isuldur, he had put his power into the ring. While Sauron did this to gain power over the other races, it also created his only real, true weakness. Only by putting himself into the ring, which COULD be destroyed, could he ever truly be subject to utter destruction. In fact, even then, he lives on, but without the power of the ring, he is an ancient shade of evil unable ever to regain power.

Voldemort, on the other hand, was born a mortal, and was just avoiding death.

Honestly, your friend needs to study the Silmarillion...
