Gildarts had stated that Acnologia was just playing with them and that the dragon wasn't using the power that it fought Gildarts with. Going off that statement, Gildarts must have fought Acnologia when they were both going all out, and to come out of that alive is very impressive. I'm convinced that Gildarts is the strongest with Makarov being a very close second.
