Nagato was an Uzumaki with absolutely monstrous chakra reserves and power, just like Naruto(Who is above Sasuke in that category as we all know). The only thing Sasuke has over Nagato is his POTENTIAL with the Rinnegan. If it was just Kurama alone when Nagato went to capture it, he would have done it with one Chibaku Tensei easily. Nagato has the "Sage Body", and "Sage Eyes" with Madara's Rinnegan. Sasuke only has the "Sage Eyes".
