Sanji is clearly still a prominent fighter.
It's just that he clearly has other roles, unlike Luffy and Zoro. So during arcs where there are no major 1v1's or no gigantic plotlines coming to an end, his strength does not always get highlighted. Oda is also okay with having him look bad at times/be a hype tool for this reason.
