During the Enies Lobby arc, what if Kaku and Jyabura had fought against Sanji and Zoro respectively? Would it have been easier, more difficult, or just the same as the original fight? Could either of them have done better than the other one or worse?

Zoro can cut through steel, J-bro is done for.
Sanji can just burn Kakus fur.

No, I wasn't talking about right now, they can 1 shot them right now for all I know. This is about Zoro and Sanji being as strong as they were during Enies Lobby arc and they have different opponents.

Let's try this again.
Zoro's and Sanji's original fight against these two were at most mid difficulty.
Kaku fights Sanji
Jyabura fights Zoro
Would Sanji have an easier fight against Kaku than he did against Jyabura? Would Sanji have done better against Kaku than Zoro?
Would Zoro have an easier fight against Jyabura than he did against Kaku? Would Zoro have done better against Jyabura than Sanji?
Would the difficulty been the same as the original fight or different?

Lol...well Jyabura would probably be wrecked due to him being weaker than Kaku and not having swords.

I think Sanji MIGHT be able to win against Kaku if he landed Diablo Jambel, but he's at a disadvantage against swordsmen as it is (well talented ones) as well as not having any real defense against rankyaku other than dodging. I'm guessing Sanji would have found a way to use the environment against Kaku.

Slightly on topic....but it would have been hilarious when Jyabura placed the key on the ground for Zoro.....he'd have just gone to take it and would have taken a heavy hit XD!

I agree. I think Zoro would have had easier fight against Jyabura and also done better than Sanji, about low-mid difficulty I would say. Sanji would have had a lot of trouble with Kaku's powerful long ranged attacks, but he'd pull it off somehow in the end, so high difficulty for him. @ last part, lol that's so true.

I think it would be the other way around, Jyabura was the only one of CP9 who could move while using Tekkai. He was a lot more dynamic then kaku was with his huge body. Sanji was able to break through Jyaburu's normal defense quite easily and as soon as he activated Diable Jambe the fight was over.

Zoro's fight had a similar pattern, little struggle, sword fight, taking some hits, asura, game over. The only difference is that Zoro tanked a lot of hits while Sanji evaded most.

I think Kaku is very vulnerable because he is a lot slower and bigger and as soon as he balls up in his cube defence Sanji could just Diable Jambe him through the room like a football.

There is only a difference of 10 doriyoki so in terms of strength they're equal.

Jyabura would also be beaten by zoro but he is a lot more agile and then Kaku was. Kaku was more using big and strong ranged attacks and Jyabura was up close and personal and used quicker and faster attacks.

If someone gets close to Zoro you're playing to his strengths, so I think both fights would be easier for Zoro and Sanji then the actual match-ups.
