User blog comment:Zerosamarises/Is Akainu The Best Choice For Fleet Admiral?/@comment-69.158.128.38-20130324194847

Well Aokiji never wanted to be fleet admiral (FA) in the first place, but did not want akainu to have the position either, which lead them to a fight for the position. Aokiji is a strong fighter, but his lazy demeanor probably isn't well suited for the postion of FA. Whereas Akainu shares a stronger sense of absolute justice to which many higher end folks within the world government would support. As well as he is a lot more stern and serious about getting rid of tyranny and what not. Aokiji is a strong fighter, but his sense of absolute justice just does not come close to the one of Akainu. Chances are the marines would have not become as strong if they were under Aokiji, but then again we don't know how strong they are right now since we haven't really seen much marines vs. pirates fights in the new world after the timeskip.
