I'll say Hancock mid or high diff.

I know she's strong but I don't think she's strong to the point of low diffing Zoro... this may change as we see more of her though.
Are you forgetting the restriction that Zoro doesn't know anything about her ability? He wouldn't be smart enough like Momonga to find a way to block the effects of her mero mero mellow. Besides she was breaking Pacifistas with a single kick. If Zoro did knew about her ability then yes, I would agree with you.

Are you serious? Zoro has zero knowledge about her ability. Hancock would win @ low-diff. (mid-diff. at best), don't underestimate her.

No one is underestimating Hancock here she is strong there is no denying thatU_U the fight could go either way because as far as I am concerned Zoro has a fair chance of winning against her. Her close up kicks will be dangerous for Zoro yes because they can turn objects into stone(such as Zoro swords or his limbs) but Zoro has been shown to have CoA haki which should be able to resist her kicks in a close up battle and if push comes to shove Zoro can always fight her long range with his flying slashes if his CoA isnt strong enough to withstand her stone kicks. I think youre the one underestimating Zoro as always here brah U_U

What are people basing this on? Nothing indicates that his Haki will protect him from her petrifying kicks.

Don't blame him, I called him an analphabetic once, and he thought it was a birth defect, so that says enough really.

I'm dying. It's been real, One Piece section I'ma see y'all on the other side don't none of y'all come to my cremation.

Since you missed it the first time, I'll rephrase: What is your basis for saying Zoro's Haki can fend off the effects of Hancock's powers?

Ohh right my bad for missing your point before U_U. Now. this is just my speculation. but if Zoro can use busoshoku haki to harm a devil fruit user(as he did with Monet on PH) he can use it to defend himself aswell e.g like how luffy can do busoshoku kouka to defend against devil fruit attacks or even bypass them. Zoro could do the same but with his swords for defence and offence aswell. Also Oda also stated something along the lines of Zoro specialises in CoA, Luffy in CoC and Sanji in CoO so Zoro should be able to use his haki to defend himself against Hancocks kicks or bypass them if necessary.

Because someone with only 2 years of experience with haki can fend off an attack from someone with 20+ years and is queen of the island famed for haki

Zoro's haki is irrelevant to Hancock's

Fair points U_U...and youre right Zoro only trained 2 years yes LOOL but did you forget who he trained with for those 2 years?...thats right friggin Mihawk someone who is yonkou lvl clashed with shanks regurlary in the past yeahh that guy. And someone who Hancock looks up to and respects and sees as a better warrior(Just look at marineford) U_U. Now dont get it twisted Im not saying Zoro>Hancock's that even if hancock has better haki than Zoro atm he shouldnt be that far behind.

Hancock is very strong. Her df is also a bit broken and I don't think zoro could escape it's effefts like luffy. If he gets hit he dies. I'd say this goes 65-35 in Hancocks favour.

Oh yeah, I forgot Zoro will just absorb Haki skill from Mihawk.

This section...sigh. Hancock can't beat MF Smoker now HAHAHA. I still say Zoro wins though high-dif, I don't find Hancock as impressive as others do.

You are acting as if hancock has shown any significant haki feats as of yet....so far Zoro's feats are more impressive than anything hancock has done pre timeskip.

Now you're just getting pathetic, the only thing Zoro did was cutting Monet's cheek. You can't even call it a feat really, and certainty not feats.

Boa is the queen of haki island and fought of Smoker pre skip. Holding back smoker for more than 5 seconds is more impressive than anything the entire strawhat crew has done pre timeskip.

Yeah even tashigi was able to cut Monet as well. Don't understand where this CoA hype for Zoro is coming from, I guess it's because Oda said that he specializes in CoA.

It's not even about how good Hancock's Haki is, but if Zoro's is good enough to block her Devil Fruit power. For one, the only fruit that Haki has ever been said to block the power of(aside from bypassing Logia intangibility and Marco's healing) is the Ope Ope no Mi, so to say it applies to Hancock's is already a far stretch. To then say Zoro's is good enough to block her fruit's power is stretching it so far it snaps.

The Hakified attack against Monet wasn't really that impressive, but at the same time uncommon considering the attack was used at a distance. He basically projected haki in the air creating a hakified slicing air attack, something we had not seen someone capable to produce yet considering most hakified attacks are close range. Now how difficult it is to do it remains unknown
