they for sure have an awakening but this doesn’t mean that it will be shown in the main story. BM did easily tank law and kidd’s final hits, but was sent off the island and this is how they won the fight. Kaido talks about awakening, showed different hybrid forms, and damn his durability is absolutely impressive, so either he is awakened without mentioning it, or oda will show his awakening in the next chapters. I think it’s safe to assume that it is the first option, and probably oda will clarify it in a SBS or something
