User blog comment:Fintin/Luffy: Weak or Not Weak?/@comment-1949364-20100627221922

Luffy is physically weak when compared to a lot of other fighters (the three commanders immediately come to mind.) But his will is so damn strong, it really makes up for a lot of where he's lacking. And he has ridiculous potential, I mean, for frick's sake, he's still technically 17 years old. By the time he reaches Shanks' age, I wouldn't be surprised if he surpasses him... and everyone else we've come across so far.
