By that reasoning, no one in the verse is exceptional. All the Admirals fought WB casually in Marineford and had the upper hand in every fight besides the one where he attacked one from behind. Blackbeard who currently has the 2nd highest pirate bounty avoided fighting an even older Rayleigh than the one Kizaru had no problems fighting.
So if the likes of the Admirals and Yonko mentioned aren’t exceptional by your standards, who do you consider exceptional?

Expecting an injured Akainu to fight Shanks without reason indicates you have very high standards indeed, especially considering that a fresh Kaido had been turned away by him earlier.
So who would you have expected to do so in that scenario?
I see it the opposite way, WB was so damaged everybody else in his shoes would have died even before stepping on the icy battlefield of Marineford (Sguardo pierced him with a naginata). Also, even if Akainu at Marineford had a great portryal as the last admiral introduced, he was put clearly way below WB, like the other admirals.

The strongest were WB, who died so he is out of the picture, Shanks who has shown incredible power and has portryal and BB who is the other side of the medal compared to Shanks (yet he has yet to grow and gain power, also BB is the only character beside Luffy and the SH who gets growing and growing, both by power and titles). About Akainu and Shanks at Marineford it is true that Akainu was for sure injured and tired yet he switched from terminator mode to time to go home the moment Shanks appeared out of the blue in front of his fist (probably a speed blitz at this point after we have seen how Shanks dealt with Kidd).

About BB and old Ray I agree that was a bit underwhelming, if really Oda is preparing BB to be the final villain he could at least have executed that better, at least don't make BB sweat for old Ray.. but this is the usual Oda trying to keep everything blur, depending how well Garp performs it could be that him and Ray are indeed treated by Oda as WB equals or almost.

So WB, dead, Shanks and BB. Another one who has some chances to be the final villain (or anyway somebody truly powerful who is eos material, I don't think Shanks will be the final villain) so somebody at the top of the verse is Im of course. But the admirals are not in that category, not even talking about how GB was used as an hypetool for Shanks but just how them are the underlings of the underlings of Im, so if Oda doesn't make Akainu try a coup or something his place in the hierarchy is already decided.
