Lmfao Luffy would crush Mr 1 unless you think Crocodile couldn't beat Mr 1 either in that case you're delusional.
Just a reminder Luffy punched Crocodile through layers and layers of bedrock he does that to Mr 1 and Mr 1 looks like a tin can that's been stepped on.
Could Zoro beat Crocodile during Alabasta? No.
Could Zoro beat Enel during Skypia? No.
Could Zoro beat Lucci during EL? No.
Could Zoro beat Doflamingo during Dressrosa? No.
Could Zoro beat Kaido during Wano? No.
Could Zoro beat Kizaru during Egg Head? No.
Generally there's a significant gap between 2nd and 1st which is why Zoro looks impressive in comparison but as soon as he takes on a serious Luffy fight he gets washed.
Foolish argument, Luffy learned to deal with steel in wano wtf...
Doesn't matter what Luffy did he didn't have haki he isn't dealing with Mr.1 (fact)
Depends if he figures out that water is the weakness he could utilize Blood and get a "W" but I'd say that's circumstantial so let's say he loses.
Like Oda said if Luffy wasn't rubber he loses
Yes. Zoro beats Lucci.
Yes. Zoro crushes Doffy in Dressrosa -- see rooftop feats that's all out TS-Zoro
No one is beating Kaido, it took Luffy dying 3 times and being revived by his fruit + getting food + a gauntlet to beat Kaido.
Kizaru isn't knocked out, he's literally choosing to stay down to rest and recuperate. There is no significant gap, as you can see from the above Luffy has a a lot of PIS and circumstantial moments which makes him win, in a straight 1v1 they're comparable.
