No I brought up some minor points about how the character has been matched up and how the character has been portrayed in those match ups. There was nothing there that could be directly compared between the two fighters but rather how the author made the character appear in similar situations. He made luffy appear outclassed and sabo has rekt an opponent of similar rank to opponents luffy has struggled with and has stalemated an opponent luffy was outclassed by. Portrayal here puts sabo above luffy.But...you brought up feats lmfaooo
I asked what portrayal, and you bring up being unaffected by Raging Tiger, by fighting Fujitora longer, and because he fought a commander. I replied addressing these points. The **** you on?
Sabo didn't have a better showing and I literally explained why in my first post, you say Sabo had a better showing, but you're not showing me HOW.Saying Sabo is nowhere near Admiral is just flat out wrong, sure Fujitora wasn't going all out but he wasn't treating Sabo like damn fodder. While Luffy is not Yonko FM level, he may be nearing it but at best he's giving a good fight to cats like Vista.
Crying about Cracker hiding behind clones is pointless because that's his figthing style, saying he hid behind his clones made by his own ability shouldn't be a reason to downplay him.
Luffy couldn't beat Cracker by himself this arc so what makes you think he's beating someone stronger than him this arc? Sabo for sure had a better showing than Luffy.
I can't take this post seriously at all. Cracker was laughing off boundman, you can make all the excuses you want.You make it seem like theres some big gap between Luffy and Sabo when it clearly isn't, his feats don't show it and the manga doesn't support it. Sabo being stronger than Luffy while they were kids holds no weight now.
Sabo ain't no where near Admiral level and Beckman is featless. Luffy while in G4 I could argue has Yonko FM level power while its active, only thing stopping him from soundly beating Doffy or Cracker was in fact the time limit. Oda had to put a big ass Time limit on it for a reason.
And you can't be taken serious at all if you say Cracker shitted on Luffy that's BS, Cracker had to hide behind a shit ton of clones just so he wouldn't get his ass curb stomped by Luffy, hell the mf got one shotted in the end. Once again, Oda put that time limit on this form for a reason. This was BM 3rd most powerful commander, showing that G4s attack power is too much for even a third strongest Yonko commander.
Sabo was the stronger one when they were kids that's it, with the logic your using Luffy will never surpass Sabo but we all know that's BS. Luffys growth rate is immense, the guy is going to be battling and most likely defeating guys Yonko Top commanders either this arc or next, that's not far or much beyond where Sabo is right now.
He also didn't have a better showing than Luffy did, you need to look at my other posts where I broke down how the fight played out.
Laughing it off... I guess that's easy to do when your hiding behind a shit ton of clones, you make it seem like he was overpowering the form and doing significant damage. That cut on his arm was superficial damage at best, theres a reason why his ass didn't go head to head with G4.I can't take this post seriously at all. Cracker was laughing off boundman, you can make all the excuses you want.
Luffy took 11 hours to beat an essentially DFless Yonkou's 3rd strongest lmfao.
Lol Cracker couldn't even use his DF and Luffy still took 11 hours to do something about it.
Oda this Oda that, stop separating G4 from Luffy like it's a separate being, his time limit in G4 is what makes up Luffy, blatantly ignoring his weaknesses while ignoring how much of a disadvantage Cracker was put in against Luffy reeks of fanboyism.
Cracker had the upper hand on G4 Boundman last we saw, at this rate even if G4 could be extended to G2 levels it's still not enough to place him in the top tier if a Yonkou's 3rd was easily competing with it without handicaps.
Lol what the? "He was using his DF, his power so it doesn't count." You sound like a true blue fanboy right now, its gross.Laughing it off...

Sure but when Luffy was using G4 and when Cracker actually had his DF, not some soggy biscuits for Luffy to feed on, he had the upper hand not Luffy.Fanfic.net, Cracker used his DF the entire time for 11 hours straight and still couldn't kill a Luffy who was running away and wasn't even using G4.
Stronger than a Yonkou's third possibly but G4 itself was being dealt with by Cracker before his DF got taken from him. So he wouldn't be a tier above or anything, he would still not be a true blue top tier. Someone like an Admiral would still whoop his ass, atleast that's what we can take from the Cracker fight.So are you agreeing that if Luffy could use G4 for a much longer duration, say as long as G2 he would be stronger than a Yonkos third, because that's pretty much my point.
Yet Cracker was facing it head on, using his clones as defense and himself to attack.He had a upper hand on the time limit that's it, as soon as it runs out he has a chance of winning, but when its on he gets 1 shot. Running away and or hiding from G4 is not competing with it, its just stalling nothing more.
Sabo didn't have a better showing and I literally explained why in my first post, you say Sabo had a better showing, but you're not showing me HOW.
Sabo hasnt done shit but yet he's put above guys like Doflamingo, G4 Luffy, Cracker, and Vista for what exactly?
Fuji didn't take him serious at all, just like he didn't take Luffy seriously. Neither Luffy or Sabo went all out against Fuji either.
It may be his fighting style but it doesn't take away the fact that no one so far has been able to go head to head with Luffy in that form.
Shanks did stop Akainu's lava Punch which made holes in WSM's bodyLack of feats from shanks and lack of feats from sabo. Just ask the same question Riker asked but apply it to shanks instead of sabo and see if there is any evidence of shanks beating an opponent G4 luffy cant.
Shading? LOL you either need ****ing glasses or you need to reread, its NOT shading. Caught him off guard? GO BACK AND REREAD. Fuji blocked the damn attack and STILL was bruised. So having resistance to blunt damage is suppose to be some knock on Luffy? The double standards you guys use against Luffy is ridiculous. Luffy took a point blank FT that's why he got blown away, if you reread before saying stupid shit you would know Sabo wasn't even close to FT when he got hit. Lufy was also fighting Fuji while INJURED and not even going close to all out.You didn't explain SHIIIT. You brought up Luffy's bruising Fuji which is funny because one, Luffy didn't bruise him it was shading while two, Luffy caught Fuji off guard. Secondly you mention him taking a FT despite being injured...........FT deals blunt damage, Luffy has a high resistance to blunt damage and Fuji can cost his gravity waves with haki. Showing you how? Sabo survived a whole prolonged fight with Fuji and the end results weeee some scuffs, Luffy fights Fuji for 5 minutes S d gets blown back the only two times Fuji takes the offensive......LMAO
SABO STALEMATED AN ADMIRAL OFF SCREEN. It's funny you say Vista when Vista's hype comes from stalling Mihawk, something similar to what Sabo did. On top of the fact he's Dragon's right hand and he shitted on Burgess.
Fuji dropped meteors on Sabo off the bat and use his powers throughout the fight, sure Fuji wasn't going all out but he was serious to a degree.
Cracker went head to head with Luffy for 11 hours stop it, you want Cracker to essentially abandon his fighting style to get into a man to man brawl with Luffy LMAO.
Do you not realize that Luffy was fighting a guy he knew nothing about? Luffy was fighting a guy who abilities he wasn't familiar with. That's literally the only reason why Cracker had the upper hand initially, that's the case every time when you fight someone with tricky abilities. That doesn't at all mean that over a good portion of the fight he will continue to have the upper hand, so that whole stalemate G4 shit is way overblown. But you knew that, you just weren't going to be objective you were just going to wank Cracker and downplay every thing Luffy does, just like a true hater would.Lol what the? "He was using his DF, his power so it doesn't count." You sound like a true blue fanboy right now, its gross.

Again you are using fanboy goggles. Stop being a damn hypocrite, looking at factors for one character and ignoring them for another character.Do you not realize that Luffy was fighting a guy he knew nothing about?

That's literally the only reason why Cracker had the upper hand initially, that's the case every time when you fight someone with tricky abilities.

The point was that no one questions shanks strength due to his position as yonko (Those two scans are very minimal evidence of his strength). Yet people are sitting here doubting sabos strength with his position as chief of staff of the revolutionary army. And he had better showing against fujitora and against a yonko commander. There is an extreme amount of illogic happening in this thread to justify G4 being > Sabo despite its huge time limit weakness. Luffy might stand above sabo once that issue is handled, but for now, G4 is to risky to win without backup for when the time limit fails. Both times luffy has used it he ended up needing someone to help him.Shanks did stop Akainu's lava Punch which made holes in WSM's body

1. Second in command of the Revolutionary Army has NEVER received the same amount of hype as a Yonko, so the whole "No one doubts his strength and positioning" doesn't apply to Sabo's position. Whatsoever.The point was that no one questions shanks strength due to his position as yonko (Those two scans are very minimal evidence of his strength).

1. The point was that sabo holds a very high ranking position of a feared military force. In fact, he is second to the most wanted man in the world. There is some pretty good hype there.1.

Whatsoever.
2. No one doubts Sabo's strength because he DOES have feats that put him over someone like Luffy, in addition to hype. Sabo does not.
3. Sabo didn't have a better showing at all. He didn't land a single mark on Fujitora, while an injured Luffy was able to land a bruise without using Bounceman or Tankman. Even though Luffy was thrown aside by Fujitora and in all likelihood wouldn't be able to defeat him, he did put up a better showing than Sabo did.
4. You have no basis of comparison between Burgess and Cracker. For all you know, Cracker would whoop Burgess too, so the "commander" argument carries little to no basis.
5. There's no evidence Sabo would be able to withstand a G4 assault
Because haki is inconsistent.Question, how do you sneak up on a guy who's sensing the entire island 24/7?
Yes shading, that's why the bruise is there one panel and gone the next. Yes Fuji was caught off guard, the '!!!?' wasn't for decoration, while you can be caught off guard and still react to something. Yes it is a knock on Luffy, you're acting like he tanked an attack but he was just that damn durable when the attack had on effect on him. I read the fight you moron, Sabo and Fuji were 10-15M away from eachother at best you ****ing idiot, the power of Fuji's attack isn't dropping at that range, this is the same guy who's gravity can pull meteors from the atmosphere and you think 10-15M is making his attack weaker?Shading? LOL you either need ****ing glasses or you need to reread, its NOT shading. Caught him off guard? GO BACK AND REREAD. Fuji blocked the damn attack and STILL was bruised.

Lufy was also fighting Fuji while INJURED and not even going close to all out.
Fuji had no intentions of fighting seriously with anyone on DR, so even Doflamingo would have been able to do what Sabo did. Hell Fuji would have made everyone look on par with him because he wasn't serious, not even close why in the hell don't you guys get this?
Cracker didn't go head to head with G4 for 11 hours, he hid behind his clones and still couldn't defeat a base Luffy who was eating his biscuits and to make things worse he never turned off the fruit to deal with Nami, who I admit was hard countering him.
Its amazing how you just...smh. Its amazing how you downplay what Luffy did but overblow the hell out of what Cracker actually accomplished in that battle. His ass got 1 shot when he knew he couldn't rely on his clones.
But that rank itself has never been hyped like a Yonko status, so you can't compare them whatsoever.1. The point was that sabo holds a very high ranking position of a feared military force. In fact, he is second to the most wanted man in the world. There is some pretty good hype there.
I have never said that Akainu and Shanks clashing has little meaning. The fact that his sword was able to counteract the heat of the magma is a feat.2. Im going to assume you meant shanks in the first sentence. Shanks has no feats that put him above luffy. Him stopping akainu has very little meaning as you have so so many times yourself in akinu vs shanks threads. And his clash with Wb has little meaning becuase luffy has a town sized attack now. Splitting the sky doesnt mean much anymore. And him fighting with mihawk means little in the here and now because we dont know how much each of them has grown since then.
That's not what Luffy said.3. Sabo stalemated fuji. Luffy had to be carried off. Your earlier scan means nothing.Luffy himself admits he cant defeat fujitora. The entire alliance knows this. Tight schedule or not luffy had to be carried oput of that loss.
You can't give a feat accomplished through the joint effort of the entire crew to Burgess. All you know is he more than likely played a role in defeating the remaining Whitebeard Pirates, but you have no idea how big a role he was able to play. You keep bringing up inconclusive "feats." Just because two people have the same rank of commander doesn't mean they're the same strength.4. There is a basis. It's his rank. You can argue this one all you want but you will be wrong. BB and his 8 other crew members managed to hold whitebeards territories and defeat marcos revenge alliance. I dont think shryuu did all that himself... This is a yonko crew. Yonko have a lot of hype and so does EVERY SINGLE ONE of their commanders. Look at Jack, Cracker, Marco, Jozu, Vista, Smoothie. Why in the hell should burgess be an exception. Dont ignore the precedent set here. Burgess follows this rule until further notice.
There are a lot of reasons that "!!!?" could be there famBecause haki is inconsistent.
