The samurai would win. The knight has heavy, clunky, armor. Although the samurai has a lot of armor, it is light weight, and covers most of its body. They are well disciplined, and are trained to win or die. Samursi also had an assortment of weapons, each with their own purpose, that could easily substitute for the other, making the loss of a weapon not (as) fatal.
