Lets look at all the facts here completely and decide the potential winner:

Naruto & Nagato both belong to the uzumaki linage, which means they both have; an extensive life force, and a large and powerful amount of chakra.

Nagato & Naruto both possess powers of the six paths, [Nagato: rinnegan] [Naruto: Six paths sage mode]

Unlike Naruto Nagato does not possess the six paths chakra, and therefore  may not possess adequate amount of power needed to match or overpower naruto.

Nagato on the other hand has the full mastery of the rinnegan, experience and skill which may be able to undeniably stand toe-to-toe against naruto (likewise with sasuke).

But even with Nagato's power and XP, Naruto still has even greater advantages such as:


 * All nine tailed beast chakra
 * Yin and Yang [whole] Kurama within him, along with full mastery of tailed  beast mode and six paths senjutsu.
 * Not forgeting that Naruto has risen to hokage position, which must mean he has a tremendous increase in skill.

So after accessing boths potential who'd you say would win?

[Personally i'd say Naruto could pull it off.]
