Minto Hokage hasn't chances against Kurama, and that's the fact. His only chance was Dead Demon Consuming Seal, how Minato (without this jutsu) can win against Kurama? Minato has Flying Thunder God to dodge Kurama's attack. But he can't hurt or control Kurama. Rasengan won't make big hurt. Gamabunta will help, but not for a long time. He can keep Sage mode for a really short time, if he wants to enter Sage mode for a long time, then he must wait very long (as Jiraiya). He must save Konoha from Kurama. Of first four Hokages, Hashirama is only one who can do that. Minto hasn't needed abilities for win against Kurama (he hasn't Sharing or Wood style). I don't think you know what you are talking about. Minato said he was going to put up a barrier to contain kurama. So yes he does have abilities to keep kurama at bay. secondly, he has the 4 symbols seal. A seal used for sealing evil or large targets into humans or objects. He could have easily used that seal. But he didn't because the village "needed a Jinchuuriki". Otherwise he could have just kept kurama in a barrier and sealed him elsewhere. Of course he has chances, Minato himself said he was going to deal with the nine tails, if not for Obito messing up his plans.
