One of the reasons I have Shanks above Mihawk is because Mihawk was only given the title since Shanks & Mihawk were the main contenders and since Shanks lost his arm, Mihawk gained it by default. Shanks most likely didn't have ACoC during those and there's a 12 year gap between Shanks losing his arm and Luffy beginning his journey which gives him a lot of time to train. If we even go by confirmed Haki, Shanks has ACoC, ACoO & CoA while Mihawk has CoO & CoA.

And who tell you Mihawk doesn’t have AcoC, AcoA or AcoO ? We never seen him fight.

Mihawk doesnt want to fight Shanks because his arm makes him unworthy. Shanks with the arm probably stronger

Was it confirmed that Mihawk got his title after Shanks lost his arm

Also there were more contenders like Zoro dad,Rayleigh and Vista

@Liam667 That's another point. His best feat is fighting against Vista while suppressed. Shanks has multiple feats (stopping a punch from MF Akainu, stated by BB to be to early to fight him, stopped Kaidou from reaching MF, matched Old WB, scared Ryokugyu with WiFi Haki and one-shotting Kid & Killer). Also, I wrote if we go by CONFIRMED Haki.

Shanks will actually tie mihawk. since shanks got his arm got cut off that reduces his strength by few. and since mihawk has probably lost his conquerers and has worse haki mastery. it most likely be a tie between the two.

And can y'all stop with the shanks glazing?

Saying that mihawk wins due to his title again DOES NOT PROVE ANYTHING

If yall state a point you have to give a reason why you think that (unless its obvious)

Shanks has hit an admiral without even being on the island so he clearly has better haki mastery. mihawk hs better sword skills. and the only reason why shanks couldn't be the best swords man is because he lost his arm. shanks wins in BIQ so yeah its a tie

Greenbull is also the weakest admiral we’ve seen

@Commander Linus I don't know about that. His DF is a one hitter and can drain the nutrients of any living organism. We've seen better feats from Greenbull than Fujitora so both are likely on the same level.

Two-armed shanks at this level harasses mihawk. simple.

You know chary boy. I mean he is pretty weak (Admiral Greenbull) but Fujitora would've ended Luffy if it weren't for the citizens stopping him. since you know, marines and all.

Shanks bouta lose his right hand too im betting on Mihawk.
