You admitted yourself that Mihawk is the better swordsman but him wining against shanks is out of the question to you?
Now you are contradicting yourself...
Realistically speaking the only thing that shanks has going for him is his yonko title, hype and almost no feats, so you are refusing to even consider that Mihawk the World strongest swordsman could defeat a dude with a sword who he lost interest in fighting after he was crippled?
As long as they fight with a sword then Mihawk wins simple as that, I didnt say that it would be an easy fight no one beats a yonko without at the very least extreme diff but Mihawk wins.
Being the strongest Swordsman doesn't mean you are the strongest person. Just like being the best marksman doesn't mean that. Those are titles that show your prowess in one form of combat, but they don't encompass the entirety of battle. Just like how Zoro's swordsmanship doesn't mean he can just go beat every boss the crew has fought. I'm saying overall shanks is stronger, so in a fight, he'd win. And if he was losing the battle with the sword, he would fight full out and win. You realize he doesn't have to only do one thing to make one character feel better about his chances, right?

Your saying Shanks only has hype... but the same goes for Mihawk.
Mihawks fighting in Marineford consisted of: getting blocked by Jozu, defeating fodder, countering Luffy and tying with Vista
Even those that say he held back by Vista were debunked with the data books revealed Vista was the real deal and able to compete with Mihawk despite being the WSS.
So Mihawk himself has nothing that puts him above Shanks.
Whereas Shanks very casually blocked a blood lusted Akainu's magma fist (the DF with the most powerful offensive ability I. The manga- confirmed by Oda)

Ben Beckmann being a smoker makes me think he's better suited against Sanji, but again the rest of him sounds so much like Zoro. Anchor of the crew, Sun and Moon comparison, all of it sounds like Zoro. Since he has the highest IQ in one piece, i bet he can travel in the right direction, so that'll remain unique to Zoro.
Lucky Roo will also be an interesting battle, he is listed as a combatant afterall.
Maybe Yassop will have the Truth-Truth no Mi. He can't tell lies, but he can certainly spot them... at long range. No need for radar or future sight. His marks are already dead-on where his target truly is. Poor guy though. Even the Truth will bow before Auger's understanding of Fate. Once I get him the right fruit... Zehahah!
And Roo scares even me. If you thought the Slow-Slow fruit was dangerous. The Stop Stop will leave readers stuck like dears in headlights.
Having 2 Yonko class people in 1 crew is probably another reason why Shanks MAY have the highest bounty among the Yonko as well as why they are so revered among everyone.

So between the 2? Shanks has a much better feat
--- Double Post Merged, , Original Post Date: ---
The 2 are closer to being equal than 1 being better than the other
guess what, Mihawk is the strongest swordsman, a fact that has been established since his first appearance
he is a better swordsman than Shanks. Otherwise, he would be called "Duo strongest swordsmen"

Your post is misplaced. I never claimed Shanks was a better swordsman than Mihawk. Please comprehend what is being written before replying to ones post
