I think it makes sense if his only point of comparison is a younger Sakamoto and Akao. That leaves the statement with just enough leeway to big up Gaku, while also keeping Sakamoto, Akao, and Nagumo's hype in tact.It doesn't make sense for Nagumo to say that he is his best opponent though. Maybe among the new generation.
We don't know who Nagumo has fought over the years, but it's possible that no one was able to give him a challenge like Sakamoto and Akao did back in the day. And since all three just got stronger from that point, things likely remained that way outside of a few potential stand outs. And after Akao went missing, they probably never fought one antoher again as they developed towards their Prime selves.
