I suppose you mean a healthy nagato vs a healthy itachi.
To state the obvious first. Even if nagato is healthy he still lacks mobility as we saw in the manga. Due to not being able to walk for more than half his life. Clearly speed goes to itachi.

Could argue that the reason itachi's stamina stat is 2.5/5 is due to his illness, therefore he should have the same chakra level as sasuke 3.5/5, therefore its safe to assume that a healthy itachi would have a similar chakra rating as his little brother.

A nagato that lacks mobility is vulnerable to several attacks although granted he has counters for everything, apart from the totsuka sword. If nagato was to stand stationary and attack, he wouldnt prevail.

What i will finally say is that nagato himself lacks combat experience fighting as nagato. Since he lost his legs from a young age he as relied on dead bodies to fight for him therefore he hasnt really exprienced a real battle fighting as nagato. He hasnt been in a life and death situation fighting as nagato. When we did see him fighting as nagato its clearly showed that he is inexperienced. His battle with hanzo and co but also itachi, bee and naruto confirmed this.

Against itachi raw power alone wouldnt win you this. Imo it can go either, best chances itachi has is to end it before nagato decides to use ct
Thats why i also wrote draw. and you used nagato when you meant itachi. But, an healthy itachi and healthy nagato would have been just like how they were when they was edos.

If we go by how they were when they were living both wasnt healthy, but we both know itachi would last longer being edo than if he was living. with his stamnia as 2/5 and naruto being an uzamaki he should also have a 5 but i'll wait for the data books. It can go either way, who ever seals who first basically.

The genjutsu thing, idk if itachi would be able to find the real nagato if he is able to kill all his bodies which with his stamina i doubt it.

-Speed is nothing if he cant go pass Deva path abilities

-As you said yourself nagato has counters for everything, specially ninjutsu, that would leave itachi a very small variety of techniques to use (spelling)

-Despite you saying he lacks experience i remember him beating the shit out of B & KM naruto in TB forms almost killing them, i if itachi wouldnt have interfered, and having to use all there 3 strongest LR attacks to stop CT.

- Itachi may be a better thinker, but that doesnt make nagato stupid, if he see,s nothing is working he will obiously go for the last method wich would be CT, while he also defends himself. as shown he can grow multiple arms

Nobody said nagato is stupid. What you also forget is that itachi's main fighting style is genjutsu and not ninjutsu. This obviously cannot be absorbed. What i will say is that i do not believe this fight is as clear cut as people think. Itachi is a aruable a bad match up due to his fighting style but also his techniques. If he can out manoeuvre a battle lacking nagato and make him eat a tsukuyomi, he is then vulnerable to the totsuka sword.

Whislt nagato faired well against naruto and bee, he wouldnt fair well against itachi. Naruto and bee are not as strategic as itachi. Bee basically played into his hands

thats reminds me experience. Nagato trained under Jairya and learnt all the elements well it came natural to him. And lets not forget he was in the origanal akatsku, plus he was the head figure of the new one (tobi being the real leader) still it showed how strong he was to be the leader.

Nagato was shown to be adept at the use of genjutsu. He used it to install mental barriers and traps in his minions' minds to prevent others from accessing secret information.

If he was able to do that ^ I,m sure he can escape a genjutsu, but we still have to wait and see if kishi says something related to sukuyomi & rinnegan, untill that we can both asume, he can catch nagato in it, and i can asume nagato can easily break it down.

:| itachi didnt do anything against nagato, he just kept burning the summons, untill nagato got distracted with the clash of CT & RS,TBB, YG, and got sealed away.

We need not find out anything from kishi. He should be able to break down genjutsu. What i will say is that it depends on how easily he would be able realise he is in one and dispel it. He didnt exactly recognise jiraiya's (ma and pa's) before it was too late.

Personally i believe itachi would out manoeuvre him and show up his lack of battle experience. Nagato is the favourite though, lets not get it twisted. But it isnt as clear cut as people say. Not when somebody like itachi is involved

yeah, but those were frogs -_- singing frogs .

that may be, but nagato could also catch nagato on a short click with Divine Attraction, and take out itachi,s soul or maybe hit him with a meteor-like attack and crush him.

Frogs singing, so what? Itachi pointed a finger at naruto and got him in genjutsu. Depending on the location banshou tennin can be countered

nagato would win. itachi has no counter to his techniques. at most he could burn the summons with amaterasu but it wouldnt work on nagato himself. susano gets stalled by the summons while nagato preps chibaku tensei. intelligence isnt going to help you in a fight when you have no way to counter someones techniques.

i think he meant the frogs was a hearing genjutsu and itachi uses a mind one. in which naagto has genjutsu blocks in his mind. thats why the leaf took so long to even break through the blocks

Actually youve it wrong. Genjutsu affects the mind. There are many ways to put somebody in one though

Somebody that cast put you in a genjutsu by pointing his finger at you is weirder imo.

You talked about divine attraction and that is what banshou tennin is
