He recognizes and respects the swordsman's code and he even permitted Roronoa Zoro the luxury of training at his hand for his dedication and selflessness. He is also unafraid to reference his title of "Greatest Swordsman in the World" in relation to himself, indicating a high level of confidence in his own abilities.
Such an example is when Zoro challenged him to fight at Baratie, and even though he lost, Mihawk was impressed enough to spare him and declare his respect (although indirectly). Despite that, however, he does not seem to have anyone whom he is particularly fond of.
Because he recognizes and decides to reward Zoro's Loyalty to Luffy. What Zoro did, Begging Mihawk to train him isn't something Zoro would have done for himself. Zoro chooses to forsake his pride as a swordsmen to get stronger for Luffy's sake and Mihawk admires that.
As Zoro complies, Mihawk finally draws his blade, telling Zoro that he will remember his name, as he does not often see his level of conviction in this world. As a gesture of respect to a fellow swordsman, he tells Zoro that he will fight him with the World's Strongest Sword.
In his first appearance, Mihawk humiliated and almost killed the Straw Hats' Zoro, who also dreams of becoming the world's strongest swordsman. After that defeat, Zoro swore of defeating Mihawk, but he actually ended up training with him during the "two-year gap".
Welp, he did say "my captain and my best friend." I dont know about other readers, but i for sure know that Zolo's best friend is (was) Kuina.
Zoro x Hiyori
The Wanokuni arc of One Piece gave Zoro the spotlight he deserved but fans were more gravitated toward his scenes with Hiyori. It wouldn't surprise fans if Hiyori reveals her feelings for Zoro, her savior. They shared intimate moments and Zoro might even find a sense of belongingness when he's with her.
Mihawk outclassed Zoro when the two fought over Baratie, and even now, he is superior to the straw hat swordsman in terms of skill.

Shimotsuki Koushirou is a master swordsman and was a distant relative as well as the teacher of Roronoa Zoro.
Mihawk was purely neutral. He did not fight for right or wrong, good or evil, but merely acting in his own good side. Mihawk also shows curiosity for the people he decides to attack. He attempted to strike Whitebeard just to see what the power distance between himself and Whitebeard was.
Mihawk and Zoro have a unique and complicated relationship, as Mihawk is Zoro's current rival and mentor. When Zoro first encountered Mihawk, he knew him to be the greatest swordsman in the world. Therefore he decided that in order to be the best, he must beat the best.
It is one of few One Piece pairings where there has been a substantial amount of time spent together, as Mihawk and Perona have been by each other's side now for at least two years. Their moments can be seen closely as husband and wife, with how Perona tries to care for Mihawk and how he has shown worry for her safety.
He will always think about Luffy first and foremost, as shown in the Enies Lobby, and Zou arcs, where he said what he had to, even if it put his friends in danger.

"Kancho" (Luffy) "Kenshi-san" (Zoro)
Mihawk is said to be close to the same level as Shanks and is even dubbed as the greatest swordsman, so to say Luffy would defeat Mihawk is still debatable in the eyes of many fans.
Dracule Mihawk, better known as Hawk Eyes, is recognized as the “World's Greatest Swordsman” in One Piece right now. Being the best swordsman of his generation, his swordsmanship skills are unmatched. Even Oda admitted that Mihawk's mastery over swords is far superior to his rival Shanks.
Over the years, Shanks has grown into one of the most powerful people in One Piece. Even if he has one arm less, it hasn't hindered his progress at all. Shanks has managed to surpass Mihawk, and he is perfectly capable of beating him.
