Questions & Mysteries Old devil fruit users would always be stronger than old non-df users

[Tai long]

If 2 fighters are equal or almost equal in their prime, the df users would be stronger when they get old, that is because df (except zoans) doesn't weaken due to age.

even if you have garp and ray above young bigmom, old garp and old ray are obviously weaker than wano bigmom.

To be real, as far as I know, we have no real basis on how devil fruits work with stamina. For all we know, 70-year-old Akainu using his fruit would drain him just as quickly as Rayleigh tapping into Prime Strength or Haki. Or Whitebeard, in his prime, could pull the equivalent of a gatling earthquake barage, while in his old age he could only do a pistol earthquake.
