Ninja vs the Samurai

Ive been wondering for a while now, who would win A samurai, or a Ninja? I myself would have to go with a ninja, even after watching Samurai Jack, Ninja would be my choice.

I ask this because I was having an argument with someone else because they say a samurai could woop a ninja. But I have to say a ninja would win. Anyway what do you guys think?

We've had tons of threads like these, and they always just get repetative.

And this specific example is all about other factors, unless I'm mistaken. Samurai focused more on open fighting, while Ninja focused also on sneaking and getting into places.

But, it's a stupid and pointless debate.
