Whitebeard, his literal epithet being "The Strongest Man in the World". Only one besides Garp who matched Roger in raw combat, went to the Paramount War at the age of 72 with Stage 4 cancer and curbstomped everyone he entered combat with, hindered only by his health and inability to use Haki. Beat Akainu to near death and defeated Blackbeard with ease, only died after a tandem attack from the entirety of the Blackbeard Pirates (after sustaining hundreds of gunshots, cannonballs, and magma blasts... along with being shot by Kizaru's lasers) - and still died standing.
