Future Events Why do so many people say Sanji will fight Burgess?

[Cannibal]

He snuck into Mariejoa single handedly and snuck up on sengoku, Tsuru, Mihawk, and Doflamingo.
And he was the chief of staff of the crew.

Isn't it more a question of his abilities being effective for this, than the fact that this is some form of the Oda indicating his strength?? Seriously, even Morley and Karasu manage to sneak into Mariejoa because of their fruit.

 

[Doggo]

Why do so many people think Lafitte is that strong! He is more fitting for Brook. This guy definitely isn’t stronger than lvl 6 prisoners from BB’s crew.

I would want Sanji vs Lafitte even if Lafitte was the weakest BBP.
It is meant to be. That's all.

 

[Screws Loose242]

Burgess doesn't fit sanji match at all but I do see sanni fighting the corrupt king the cat looking guy , because when it comes to ranks on the BB crew with the ships it's kinda off plus the cat dude looks like the second strongest by far with Devon being third but I could be wrong because we do have kuzan there who I think is the strongest among the crew maybe sooo ..... nor sure what roll he'll play

 

[Cannibal]

U really think Pudding is the only Three Eye tribe member in the world?

She is not the last of her tribe, but the only one that makes sense within the BB crew considering the current context.

They didn’t sneak up on a man hyped by Roger and a man known for his eyes.

Sneaking up on haki users is incredible and pretty underrated.

The only thing I can tell you is, be careful with your expectations of him based on very little... In a little while he's going to be Nami's opponent and you're going to be crying.

His sneaking up on big names is a good feat, but since Oda isn't very consistent with the CoO thing (looks at Big Mom and Kaido, or Sanji being unable to predict a BM trap) I can't tell if that convinces me.

 

[BOCCHI]

Stealthy doesn’t equal powerful. He has a skill he can utilize well. Besides CoO only used when it’s convenient in the plot no need to read too much into the matter.

And him being chief of staff of the Blackbeard pirates? A title only shared with other top members of their groups:

Sabo of the revolutionary army
Cabaji of the Buggy pirates

 

[Luffy bin Dragon]

There's only one correct matchup.
Sanji vs Lafitte.

 

[Least Pirates]

I see more people having him fighting Pizarro myself.

 

[TEACH D TEACH]

Honestly there's no hierarchy in Blackbeards crew after Shiryuu, 3rd strongest could be any of them honestly.

Strength wise there is, the Impel Down escapees and Shiryu are stronger than the rest imo. They are all not only from Level6, but also survived death matches against other L6 prisoners to join BB. And if you look at some of the known characters that were locked up in L6, you get the idea of their level

 

[fanboy]

Sanji vs Burgess makes sense because they both took L's in Dressrosa. Also Burgess snuck into the revolutionary army HQ, just like how Sanji has his sneaky moments (crocodile, Momo rescue).

The same way Oda is creating a mystery about Green Bull, he is doing with Sanji's opponent in the BB Pirates, so Sanji's opponent could not be known for now. These two are probably Sanji's last 1vs1 fights in the manga

Jabra for example wasn't known that early, but Kaku was.

But if i had to pick someone of them, it would be either Lafitte or Pizarro

Lafitte specially because of this panel here, despite Lafite's title card not being shown like Shyriu's, they look like the main dudes taking care of things for BlackBeard, similar to King and Queen..

 

[JoNdule]

When Jinbe is the much more logical choice? Both are helmsmen, and Burgess is a performative wrestler while Jinbe is a serious martial artist

Doesn't work like that really

Burgess fights only jinbeu if sanji fights Lafitte or else it'll be Teach OG top 2 + Shiryu vs Luffy's top 3

Yup
Oda reintroduced lafitte and Shiryu at the same time
Which tells me both will fight Zoro and Sanji

 

[Shiroyru]

The mysterious 10th Titanic Captain will be Sanji’s opponent. None of the other BBPs have any significant thematic connection to Sanji

 

[Julius]

I took that from the onepiece.fandom website, about Lafitte:

"Despite being a malevolent pirate, Laffitte has an extremely refined and sophisticated personality, always speaking in a polite and courteous manner even when threatening people such Avalo Pizarro for wanting to replace Teach as captain. He also reprimanded Burgess for his habit of referring Teach as "captain" instead of "admiral"."


Looks like a "Left-Hand" for me

Sanji is extremely refined and has a sophisticated personality


Spit some facts to Pizarro and Burgess


Appeared alongside with Shyriu in a ship to rescue Burgess

 

[BleakAsh]

BB turns out to be an Okama with a multiple personality syndrome


SANJI VS BB

Lafitte is fighting Nami. Lafitte gets more attention than the others because Nami is considered by Oda to be one of the 3 “triggers” of One Piece

I thought about that, maybe Lafitte just talks too much, similar to Nami i must say

Nope
No new member will Sanji main opponent

Since when Zoro and Sanji fought newer members as main opponents
They always fight the main core fighters

Burgess and Lafitte are Teach FM & Chieff of staff
No way Sanji fight someone who's just a recent member
