You people are thinking WAY too hard on all of this...go back and reread some of the first chapters again. The first bosses wer Alvida and Morgan, both were taken down without much effort by Luffy and Zoro. Oda is just showing how much stronger the Strawhats have become. I am sure that once in the New World, things will get progressively harder as our favorite pirate crew grows into the legends that we know they will be.

Also, I don't think Big Mam will show up. It is way too early for the Strawhats to take on one of the Yonkou, she would mop the floor with them
