2. Garp was said to corner Roger several times, not draw with him, that is a different thing.

5. The gorusei are just bureaucrats I believe, I doubt they match up with Roger.

6. We know waaaayyy too little about Dragon too make that assumption, but I doubt he's on Rogers level.

7. We don't know anything about rogers fighting style aside from the fact that he was able to "hear the voice of all things" which suggests he was a skilled haki user. We don't know how blackbeards power matches up with that.
