Controversial MarineFord is to blame for the lack of Fights in One Piece.

[Dettles]

As much as people complain about all the clashes instead of actually fights in current One Piece, the real start of it was Marineford. it was an arc with no real fights only classes and single attacks. and people ate it up.

You cant have 1vs1s in such settings. Everyone is trying to off everyone.
