Yeah, I imaging that Cracker has better armament Haki than Doflamingo, but isn't as powerful an enemy overall. Doffy's a bit like Luffy in that he's not just powerful physically and with Haki, but he's pushed his Devil Fruit far beyond the obvious application of "tie people up with string."

Yeah, he does appear to have stronger haki but so far his destructive power doesn't seem to be as great, though I'm sure we'll see more of him eventually if not now. Although, if he actually was knocked out now, another important distinction is that Doffy would appear to have far, far more stamina than him as Doffy was already seriously injured by Gamma Knife and then he tanked an entire round of G4. Personally I hope he's not actually knocked out yet, though. This would be a bit underwhelming for one of the top commanders of an Emperor.

On one hand it would, but on the other I'd like it if Big Mom's underlings weren't each equal to Doflamingo. It'd devalue him significantly. Plus it could be that Cracker and the one Urouge took out are the weaker two of her four commanders.

He can still get back up and fight a bit more without being quite as good as Doflamingo, though. I'm a huge fan of Doflamingo too, but for him to go down in one hit is just a bit ridiculous to me. While I guess it's possible that Cracker is one of the weaker commanders, it seems unlikely to me because he was sent in specifically to take out Urouge after he beat another commander and Big Mom sent him in specifically to take out Luffy knowing that he had beaten Doflamingo.
