In an extremely unlikely close range dogfight with an F-16, where the F-35 has no missiles, the F-16 could win.
If the F-35 has any of its weapons though, then the F-16 gets pasted by a missile the F-35 fires whenever it wants because it can essentially shoot behind itself.
In reality the F-16 gets killed without ever knowing it's being tracked.
