Mihawk vs Marco

Shanks and Fujitora are swordsman, hence swordsmanship is their MAIN FORTE, it's very simple. Thus, Mihawk's superiority against them in terms of swordsmanship is therefore strength-related.

Of course he would.
Let's take King as an example; dude is a YC1 character, massively weaker than Fujitora/Shanks. Said guy mid diffs King at worst. And Fujitora/Shanks is slightly weaker than Mihawk. Powerscaling wise, Mihawk also low/mid diffs those guys at worst.
Change King with Katakuri - it is the same outcome. Change Katakuri with Shilliew (not EOS) - it is the same outcome. And thus, change Shilliew with Marco - it is the same outcome.

Just one question for you ...
If Fujitora crushes Mihawk with gravity and defeats him. Will Fujitora become WSS?
 
Ask the same question for WB since he was using a weapon classfied as sword
I agree...
WB can defeat Mihawk with his earthquake punches.
Law can defeat Mihawk with GK
Kizaru (who also uses swords) can defeat Mihawk with light shots
Aokiji (who also uses swords) can defeat frozen Mihawk
Kaku can defeat Mihawk with another rokushiki technique.
Big Mom (who also uses swords) can defeat Mihawk with prometheus.
And so on ... Mihawk being a better swordsman than all of them doesn't mean he's a better overall fighter. That is my opinion.
 
When has fuji used a sword attack?
Irrelevant; he was considered to be a swordsman on the VC and thus, he's below Mihawk.
But to answer your question: he can combine his gravity powers with his sword just like he did against Luffy and Sabo.

Was WB considered to be a swordsman? Nope. It is Fujitora? Yes.

If Fujitora crushes Mihawk with gravity and defeats him. Will Fujitora become WSS?
If Fujitora combines his gravity power with his swordsmanship, then yes.

The title of WSS obviously applies to characters who are at their greatest when using a sword to fight. This excludes Kizaru, Kuzan, Hawkins, et cetera.

But it’s pretty ballsy to say that Luffy can high diff Zoro’s EOS opponent right from the Time skip. I think it’s obvious to most that Mihawk is ~ with most top tiers.

Relevant though. Nobody said swordsman are confined in being so.
He never combined it though, or tell me how a slash aids in creating gravity, or pulling down meteors, or floating rubble of an entire island?

Irrelevant, both did the same thing.

I agree with the Pure Swordsman/Kenshi idea, and agree that people like Whitebeard and Fuji are not viewed as traditional swordsmen like Mihawk is.

However, Shanks is. He has no DF, and Haki is just a must-have for top tier Swordsman, not an entirely new fighting style.

Shanks < Mihawk is indesputable as both are Kenshi/Pure Swordsmen.

Nope. Manga portrayed it on several occasions, though.
You literally answered your own question; he is able to combine his air slashes with gravity, that's why he's able to pull out vertical gravity towards his opponent.

Relevant, Fuji is a swordsman, WB not. You can't go through that fact.

Didn´t though.
Only that i didn,t tell me the mechanics of it. How is a sword slash pulling a meteor, how is the slashing movement relevant, how is his slashing and sword ability relevant for his efficiency in the devil fruit?

Shanks was never called a swordsman either, so what is your criteria?
 
Fujitora with a sword > Fujitora without a sword. Because it is not an either or. Zoro said, if someone calls himself a swordsman, he needs to beat him, no matter his other tricks.

So is Zoro's goal now to be the strongest among those who only use a sword in their fight?

If Fujitora is able to send an air slash into space in seconds, he low diffs Mihawk without even needing his DF. Lol

Fuji’s Sword is irrelevant to his fruit, he levitated his warship without even touching the sword.

With Fuji, the sword is just a Zatoichi homage, not a fighting necessity. He could drop it and be just as insanely strong. Lol

So he needs to be stronger than BM, WB and so on as well?
Besides, once again, pretty much conjecture.

Whitebeard was never labelled as a swordsman. A swordsman is someone who fights at his best using a sword. Whitebeard or Big Mom could as well use a club to empower it with their DF and swing it. People like Fujitora, Shanks and Mihawks however can utilize their power best with a sword. Fujitora was literally labelled as a swordsman. Mihawk is called strongest swordsman. Portrayal clearly speaks in Mihawk's favor.
 
I'm sure Whitebeard with a club would be as strong. Hence he is not a swordsman. A swordsman is someone who is at his best as a swordsman.
Fujitora would be the same with a stick lmao :ROFLMAO: The guy can send meteor while eating his dinner.

We've never seen Shanks' fighting for a reason as E.Oda said in SBS,
mihawk/zoro fans will stop reading one piece after we learn how :milaugh:

Where does this definition come from? The manga? Nope.
And Shanks was never labeled a swordsman, so why are you assuming he falls under Mihawk?
