Don't why people comparing 80 year old garp with a 40 years younger version when we know old age is make him weaker.
Oda has him say it more than once in the manga .
1) We've seen old WB's performance vs old Garp's and WB completely shat on Garp in an infinitely worse condition.
2) Garp admitted WB was king of the seas.
3) Roger used WB to 'pretend' he had his hands full — Roger was trolling WB here, whereas we later see them clashing equally in Oden's flashback when both are in their prime.
4) WB is not yet a 'great pirate'.
Tbh, I still don't believe anyone here is in their prime apart from Xebec and from the way he's being portrayed, Garp.
So far, nothing explains why Roger decided to fight and defeat Rocks, in fact, there are reasons for him to HELP Rocks. So I wonder what's gonna happen.
