Yeah,someone with ultra-hax limitless MeoDP(Shiki 3rd personality) or half-vampiric body full of crazy reinforcement spells(Ciel, who also has special Black Keys) is able to fight defensively against a Servant. Shirou obviously is much more inferior to them in terms of experience, strenght or speed(in Ciel's case).
And Gil isn't much inferior to anyoe in terms of fighting skills. The thing he lacks is perfect weapon expertise. But still he IS a Servant(and one of the best physically).
And lastly UBW is only enough to Shirou have a way to counter GoB. It still doesn't give him suddenly enough power and weapon skill to beat a Servant in mellee! Gil or any other Servant would laught off such a foolish approach. I know Gil has to worry about UBW, but he can manage it due to his experience and reflexes. Not to mention the one he have to defeat is so nice and "walk"(as running by human speed is like that to a Servant) to him to be finihsed off. Shirou's projection can give him the sword's experience which shows in a more refined swing, but it still can't give him speed or strenght to be a threat. If Nasu's writing keeps up the realism Shirou would've ended up 20 meters away in a pool of blood after he tried to melee Gil.
