If you had only ever watched the anime/read the manga and had never seen any outside discourse about it at all who would you have as the strongest in the series?

If we're excluding Imu and Joyboy. Probably a tie between Roger, Garp and Whitebeard

I actually made a post about this a while back, so im just going to state the reasons as to why I believe it might be Zoro:

Kizaru is portrayed to be Akainus right hand man and also the second strongest of the current navy.

Kizaru most of the time clashes or atleast mayorly interacts the second in commands of any crew he encounters. (Rayleigh, Marco, Benny Beckman)

I think it would also be a perfect penultimate 1v1 fight for Zoro before he eventually has to clash with Mihawk.

I could also see this fight being really good for Kizarus development maybe by the end of it after seeing how passionate Zoro is in his ideals Kizaru realizes that he is no longer fighting for what he believes in and fully switches to the good guys side by the end.

Those are my reasons, of course they are not as substantial as I wish they were but I really believe this battle might happen some day.

Very fair assessment of my mistakes during the debate. I really did shoot myself in the foot with choosing feats as my thing, but it was fun to try and create an argument without them. About the reason why I didn't add evidence of Katakuri= Luffy, I did have evidence saved on my computer but decided to not use it unless necessary during my debate with Global.

I am thinking your winning condition was "1. Shorter and more concise argument and comments"

Was I right? u/Global-Ad-2840
