First off, one of the requirements in this debate state that Minato is not a jinchuuriki, so Kurama is out.

Also, I don't even know why mention Jiraiya at all in this debate. He had a ton of desatvantages fighting Nagato that it wasn't even funny.

Secondly, Nagato never achieved the true potential of the Rinnegan. There were so many more abilities he never managed to gain, so to say that he can take down the Yellow Flash is far fetched. As I said, as much as Minato doesn't know about the Rinnegan, Nagato doesn't know much about the innerworkings of the Yondaime's techniques, beyond the obvious; he's fast. Most of Nagato's techniques won't work on Minato, and he will actually have to grab a hold of him to deal any damage. That is a monumental feat in itself. If Minato marks his bodies with the jutsu shiki, it's end game.
