Luffy has already lost to Kaido twice, the first time ending up with him in prison and the second with him being thrown off the floating island in defeat.

Against Shanks, even if Luffy possesses weaker Haki, the Devil Fruit abilities of the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika can make up for the deficit and see him emerge victorious. Currently, however, Shanks is likely stronger than Luffy, simply due to the fact that the plot demands that of him.
