Sure, why not. One is featless, the others only fights have been against fodders, being curbstomped and offscreen (albeit not all at once). To say that either is stronger than the other is pointless.

1- I believe so far that Dragon is not stronger than an Admiral, maybe around that level but not stronger...
2- It's still unclear if Teach has really confronted Dragon.

Dragon is still stronger imo. BB was willing to fight whitebeard and sengoku but he ran from shanks and akainu, he definitely had a plan or some weapon to put him in an advantage like Jack did against the Mink kingdom.

He did not win. Whitbeard won, even though whitebeard was on deaths door and succumbed to his injuries in the end. The old man still beat Akainu,s Ass.
Work on that memory. Akainu and Whitebeard "fought" twice at Marineford. I put fought in quotation marks because their second clash was as much as a fight as the Yeti Cool Brothers knocking out Zoro, Sanji, and Brook with a sneak attack was a fight.

Akainu won the first one due to Whitebeard's weakened body.

I like how Akainu gets so much credit for injuring a totally vulnerable old man who could not even prevent a fodder from attacking him. Like this isn't biased enough, he receives sympathy for getting blind sided by a half dead Whitebeard in the middle of a freaking war. People need to seriously understand what a sneak attack is, it's not like WB was hiding behind rocks waiting for a chance to launch a sneak attack. It was in the middle of a war where everyone around you is your enemy. Akainu is equally responsible for the successful execution of surprise attack, as he was ignorant enough to let WB attack him in the middle of a war.

1. This same forum sucks Whitebeard at this stage off, so I dunno why you're saying this like it's some ground breaking revelation.

2. WB's strength fluctuated at Marineford. Some moments he could use monstrous Haki to wound someone who shrugged off top tier Haki before, and other times he couldn't even release a wave of Haoshoku as strong as Luffy's unconscious burst. Unless you're trying to imply that ****ing Squard of all people can move faster than Akainu, who WB was comfortably reacting to, then it's asinine to compare WB at his lowest points to WB at his highest points as a means to discredit Akainu.

Not a single word of this matters in a one vs one fight.

Surviving WB and killing him are 2 different things

Akainu definitely could have killed him. With the heart attack and the magma hit, Whitebeard was too stunned to defend himself against fodder. If it wasn't for plot, that would be when Akainu would follow up with blows straight to the face. Hell, if it wasn't for plot, Akainu could have hit WB in the face instead of his torso from the jump.
