Nobody except a few cares about Zoro vs Kizaru. What's the difference of fighting Kizaru or fighting his equal, Lucci?
Come to think of it, Kizaru never really bodied healthy Zoro. He only defeated very injured Zoro who just endured Thriller Bark shit.
While pre TS, Lucci bodied not only Luffy not only Zoro but both of them together.
Lucci bodied both healthy Luffy and healthy Zoro at the same time
so from on you can stop acting as if fighting Lucci is actually worse than fighting Kizaru. It is only worse if Sanji ends up fighting Kizaru because so far in entire manga Zoro's opponents are never equal to Sanji's.
