Awakened Zoan lucci: was not one shotted by g5 luffy. Even clashed with him for a bit. Forced g5 luffy to use future sight. Forced g5 luffy to use a named attack while he used none. Damaged sentomaru while he was right next to g5 luffy. Haki fist clashed with g5 luffy. When they were done fighting luffy was an old man that needed to be carried by chopper while in the same chapter lucci was up with (1) bandage on his face perfectly fine afterwards.
The same awakened lucci: fights zoro. Zoro isn't using 3 swords. He doesn't have his bandanna on which always signifies that he is serious now. Has not shown zoro using any of his named attacks against him. Has clashed perfectly well with luccis attacks.
Yet apparently the census is that lucci is a hard fight for zoro? A hard fight was m1 vs zoro. That was a hard fight for zoro. Not this fight in which zoro then tells lucci last chapter that he is going to wrap it up.
