If Whitebeard fought Akainu in his best condition (like without being stabbed by the squad and without fighting aokiji and Kizaru) he would have send that magma ass straight to the bottom of the sea. Same goes with Shanks .......... he can also defeat a Admiral but he will have great difficulty since he has no DF powers but his Haki will kick some serious Admiral ass! Shanks is like Dark King but in younger prime.
