Minato wins. Better experience and skill. Nagato outstats him in everything except speed, but outstats Minato everywhere else, but his main strength is the utility of the rinnegan, which Minato has counters for. Nagato isn't familair with FTG. Minato knows about the Rinnegan abilities because he watched Naruto's battle with Pain. He probably won't know off the bat that Nagato can use all 6, but he will experiment. In close quarters minato wins outside of the Ashura half enhacnments. but minato can teleport in and out. and has better skill up close as Nagato isn't particuarly proficient in Taijutsu. Minato just has to worry about shinra Tensei but tanks to teleportation he doesn't have to worry about it too much. He eventually slits his throat with a kunai. Remember minato can use sage mode too.
