Honestly, I think Adam would have won. Weiss hasn't done very well in lone battles against people, and on top of that, Adam probably would've been able to shake her up by getting in her head about how Jacques runs the SDC. Flynt shook her a little bit with such a tactic in the tournament, after all. As Blake told Yang, one of the things that gave Adam power was getting into people's heads.

Even without the mindgames, he would present a challenge. Weiss can be fast, but so can Adam. Weiss seems to be a bit of a DPS (damage per second), which means doing a bunch of weaker hits that add up, but Adam uses pretty strong hits, which can be so fast that you can barely see it happening. If she used a summon against him, he could just block the hits and use it to fuel his Semblance, which is very bad news for Weiss, who has so far shown that her Aura really doesn't last her quite as long as it lasts other people, whether because she has less or because she uses some of it to make a lot of glyphs throughout the battle.
