I just pieced this together randomly.

Where is the Sperm whale? The Asian straight tusk elephant and steppe mammoths are the dwafts in this matchup.

I voted livyatan on the presumption it's an even bigger sperm whale with a jaw designed for large robust prey (as opposed to specialised for spineless cephalopods)

Voting for megalodon. Livyatan went extinct by the start of the Pliocene, when whales started to get larger. While megalodon went extinct at the end of the Pliocene, possibly implying that the shark had no bother preying on humpback whale-sized cetaceans, unlike livyatan. Of course there were other factors too though.
It's also just more impressive to me. There have been cases where pilot whales have been eaten or scared off by great whites. If I recall correctly there's a video from a spanish news channel that exclaimed that some pilot whales had been closed into Mexico by a lesser amount of great white sharks. No articles have ever been posted on the subject of either false killer whales or pilot whales killing great whites either, in pods or not.
