First of all, Kuzan's hands being in his pockets means absolutely nothing. Kuzan doesn't have a power that requires him to physically exert himself. He froze miles upon miles of water for five whole days just by dipping his fingers inside.
Kuzan warned him, but Doflamingo took his attention off of Kuzan and put it back on Smoker, as Kuzan froze him while he was delivering another attack to Smoker. Nothing indicates that Doflamingo took so much time to break that it'd be a window for Kuzan to attack him, not to mention that nothing indicates that Doflamingo couldn't have avoided it if he was paying attention to Kuzan instead of Smoker.
Power-scaling. Kizaru could stand up to Whitebeard and keep him from moving forward, but you think he's less tough that Luffy? Kizaru took a kick from Marco, someone who could push Akainu, and didn't receive a scratch, but Lufy was injured by someone who can't beat Admirals(Doflamingo).
Luffy is above all the Admirals in brute strength? So you think Luffy is above Whitebeard too in brute strength?
Yeah I'm kinda starting to agree with you, I forgot Kizaru could fight with Rayleigh and still be playing around, so his physical strength does have to be quite high. I would still say that yes, in terms of brute strength(by that I mean physical strength) Luffy has shown enough power to fight with Whitebeard, in Gear 4th at least. He couldn't win because of whitebeard's devil fruit abilities but punch for punch, he is as strong as Whitebeard. I mean shit he was flinging Doflamingo, who would use armament to protect himself, for miles
