Even though Kaneki technically 'defeated' him, I'd still say he died truly undefeated. At the end of the day, he intended to die anyway and even had to prepare his own poison over the course of 2-3 years. If he had ended Kaneki at V14 back then, he'd die from his shortened lifespan because there'd be no ghoul strong enough to end him. (Unless they wait a few years for him to become completely blind and/or weaker I guess :/)

Hell, Eto was the strongest ghoul to ever cross CCG and he can roflstomp her with relative ease. I really always wondered why she lived so long, only to find out that she's been affiliated with him ever since their first encounter. That's when it all made sense... that he let her go all those times.

Even the latest chapter showed that he was either secretly leader or at least a high ranking member of Aogiri. I respect the dude, he definitely left behind one hell of a legend for generations of ghouls and investigators to come, and the legacy he left behind in Kaneki would basically be myth to anyone who hears about the guy who beat the Reaper.
