Had Germany and Japan not gotten America involved, they would have completely kicked the USSR's arse.

At the beginning of the war, not at the end. They weren't prepared after civil war, purges, and pact with Germany/Stalin being stubborn and not listening to his spies and German defectors telling him Germany was planning invasion..

By the end of war they were beating the Germans, at their own game, with what they had learned fighting the Nazi's.. and came out of the war unanimously considered to have the best army in the world, despite having lost what they had, and America still being strong with their small amount of casualties.
