Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
Luffy should eventually break a part of Bones after punching his sharp body with blunt force, he'd hurt himself a great deal, but I think he had damaged forged steel before during previous arcs, so it's well within the realm of possibility.
yup, luffy could have won with less difficulty than zoro, he also punched through like hundreds of layers of bedrock that arc and broke the gold armor that don krieg had.
This is a bad match-up at that point in time. Luffy risks seriously dismembering himself from the mere act of attacking Daz, and Luffy can't block his attacks.
Yeah I honestly don't know why everyone believes Luffy wins. Sure Daz Bones is unquestionably weaker than Crocodile but in terms of abilities he has a distinct advantage. Luffy is weak to swords and such which is what Bones turns his body into to block regular attacks.
I mean Enel was stronger than Crocodile but he didn't do as well against Luffy because his DF is just naturally weak to Mugiwara's. Likewise Foxy, who is significantly weaker than Enel, actually put up a decent showing against Luffy(but that fight was mostly played for laughs).
Luffy can be hurt to swords and such, but he's still really tough. Arlong used a ton of cutting/stabby stuff, and I'd guess Arlong having more offensive power than Daz Bones.
Daz Bones was cutting large structures into confetti. Arlongs strong enough to topple buildings, but his piercing and cutting offense doesn't come close.

luffy is quite a bit faster. he got around almost all of crocs hook/blade attacks and broke that sand anchor attack with gomu gomu no storm, he could dent the steel which would have to hurt like hell, daz cant tank that since the one move zoro actually got through on daz was what finished him (shishi sonson), he has no durability since he thought he didnt need it with the steel fruit, and that arc luffy survived an impaling and healed it with meat and hes amazing at improvising, saying he loses to daz is like saying he loses to zoro that arc, he would beat both...
I was under the impression Luffy would be able to break steel with his fists, he went to punch straight through spikes against Don Krieg, but admittedly it dépends in whether or not he can hurt Daz Bones through his blade form.
