I mean there's a big possibility of a clash between them, but...for a decisive final fight to determine final winner and loser between them? I don't think Oda will do it.

My old reason:
- Luffy has done his role as Ace's little bro in Marineford, while Sabo (both Ace's brother and fruit inheritor) hasn't done anything at all

Recently i also think about another reason
- I think Akainu is a fighter with way too narrow of a fighting style. Not that it's not strong, Akainu is undoubtedly strong, but well he uses his magma to burn and melt everything, and...that's pretty much it. Meanwhile we see that Luffy's real main enemies mostly have a bag of tricks to fight. Doflamingo uses his strings to fly, being a puppeteer, pierce, restrict enemy's movement etc. Katakuri uses his trident, his FS to predict and intangible, his mochi to entrap-suffocate, send projectiles. Kaidou uses his kanabo, his fire breath, tornadoes, his gust of wind etc. While Akainu is quite far from having wide variation of attack types.
