Then why did you say Luffy can high-diff. an admiral?
I'm not saying that he can high diff an admiral, but that he can give pretty good fight to an admiral, and maybe even tie with out.
Sabo can't even give an admiral high diff let alone Luffy. Also just because give an admiral a challenge was the point of his training doesn't mean that he can actually give an admiral a challenge. It's like a boxer getting trained specifically to fight someone and give them a challenged. This doesn't mean that that boxer still won't get KO'ed in the first round even though he trained to give his opponent a challenge.
Also where was it stated that the purpose of the training was to get him at a level that he can challenge admirals? If I remember correctly Rayliegh was only willing to teach Luffy the Basics of Haki. Luffy had to figure the rest out on his own.
So you're saying someone with basic haki training and 6 months of self training is suddenly able to give an admiral high diff? when people who has better haki (Marco, Sabo) can't put up a high diff fight against an admiral.
How do you know that Sabo can't give high diff to an admiral? Most of Sabo vs Fuji fight was off panel'd. Hm, experienced man like Silvers shouldn't make such mistake and that would be pretty big one if Luffy would be far from admiral's level. Also, it's not only about stataments but also about portraying. After Luffy/Law defeat Mingo, they will fight Kaido or Big Mom, if they are not already close to admiral level, than they don't even has chance against an Yonko. In order to beat a Yonko, IMO both Luffy and Law will need to be admiral levels, if they are as you say weak enough to be soloed by just 1 admiral, than Law was dead wrong with his calculation that they has 30% of beating Kaido.
I posted a page. It's from chapter 591, and Silvers' said "Do you want that to happen again?" in the background it's SH vs Kizaru and co. So to what Silvers' refer?
Marco fought equal with an admiral and we never saw Sabo vs Fujitora to full extent.
Oh wow don't tell me you're using Gohara excuse, Ray said that Luffy learnt the basics of haki he isn't pushing a Admiral for shit.
Interesting name you have there,

You know
Gohara? That's not excuse, it's present in the manga.
