We can clearly see that Sanji is trying to get stronger during the fight.
He wants to improve his defense.
His CoA wasn't strong enough yet. He knows that Zoro is stronger than him offensively and that he needs to become the crew's tank.

Three predictions regarding Zoro:
- Either he gets another chapter against Sommers, in which Sommers reveals his final power-up and Zoro defeats him;
- He helps Luffy and Loki against Imu;
- Shamrock arrives, and we see both of them fighting.
Any guess?

Mihawk told Zoro to discover himself to surpass him, describing Conqueror’s Haki as an essence tied to one’s identity.
This further supports the idea that ACoC is part of swordsmanship, not something separate from it.
In conclusion, Mihawk is the world’s strongest swordsman, awaiting an opponent stronger than Shanks.
Whether it’s Kengo, 剣術 (swordsmanship), 剣技 (sword skills), or who qualifies as a swordsman, everything points to Mihawk beating Shanks.
