Who would win Gandalf or Sauron?
Sauron was stronger than Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings, but it has to be said that there were a few different shapes of both characters. Sauron was stronger than Gandalf the Grey, but probably not stronger than Gandalf the White. Also, there are their true Istari forms that should be compared.
Who are the Nazgûl in The Lord of the Rings?
The Nazgûl may be Sauron’s most feared henchmen, but there are many things about them that don’t add up.

My short answer is “Yes, the Lord of the Nazgûl could have slain or defeated Gandalf”. Well, I’m sure he could have slain Gandalf the Grey.
