Not really. At the time of that quote, he hadn’t introduced FS. That’s one of the ways Luffy will beat Kaido. The others on the rooftop are playing a role in taking down Kaido, that’s nothing to do with Luffy’s punch. Ryou hadn’t been introduced yet either. Big Mom could play a massive role in Kaido’s defeat if she backstabs him. These are all things that are more than “punching really hard.”
It was always going to come down to Luffy, at one stage, punching Kaido into submission, but that’s not what Oda was talking about,
