pretty much all the other guards were defeated, leaving only Magellan to stop anyone left in lvl 6. Magellan also fought the BB pirates, Inazuma, Ivankov, Luffy, stopped a few riots, took down a lot of lower level prisoners in Luffy's group, got hit by Luffy's champion attacks + gear 3rd, and finally fought Mr. 2 (who MAY have put up quite a fight and possibly escaped). All before he had to fight those from level 6, who are as powerfull as Crocodile, if not even stronger. There are limits to someone's stamina. Even an Admiral would have difficulty stopping anyone from leaving Impel Down. I would say he is a legitimate candidate for admiral if one of the current 3 is promoted to fleet admiral.
