Well needless to say, Sanji's durability shouldn't be questioned. Some highlights:

He was afraid to use skywalk underwater to get to the surface on Punk Hazard because it strains the user's body meaning his is more durable.
Nami comments on herself being his body and thank goodness he was durable.
Judge used what seemed to be one of his signature techniques on Sanji and he survived it and only needed some bandages after. This is also taking into considerstion his father had a raidsuit on, a customized weapon, and he himself did not have a raid suit.
In order to be fast, to the point of kicking Oven without being seen, one must have some well developed muscles. Think a kangaroo mouse or a flea. These may be minor animals to us but if you scale their abilities to human size, the powers would be immense.

So yeah, him getting back up after a direct hit from Drake isn't surprsing. Let's see how well he can fight drake for now. I have a good feeling that donning the raidsuit will result in him winning. I bet Page 1 suffered an embarassing defeat back then. I mean, who better to take down Dinosaurs than Sanji? He gonna kick their ass first off to tenderize the meat. Then just beat it to a pulp, use diable jambe to smoke these fools to prep as a final course. Why else is his attacks named after cooking styles or food? When Sanji fights, sometimes it reminds me of Goku eating all the food in the hyperbolic time chamber stacking bowls high enough that they'd tower over his head.

I must admit that Sanji was pretty cool dodging most of Drake's attacks.

It was funny seeing Sanji (Oda?) using the same arguments as fans in arguments "But muh bounty iz higher!" and the jelly face was gold!

i think Zoro would be stronger cos the story expects him to be. I like Sanji and would accept him only lightly behind.
I mean, this is the vibe Oda's been going for the entire series. Luffy is slightly above Zoro and Zoro is slightly above Sanji.

That part wasr arguably the best part of the chapter. I mean the Enel Faces at the end was great but Sanji's comments were the best. Also, it might be seen as some kind of comic relief with the crosshairs from Sanji's vision but I think it is a subtle way for Oda to tell us his growth in CoO. In all the chaos, he locates a random screaming girl while fighting a bigass dinosaur...and dodging most of said dinosaur's attacks. Not bad if you ask me. He demonstrated this before on Punk Hazard right before his clash with Vergo but this time it is illustrated with the crosshair emphasis.

He did the crosshair gag back on Saobody Archipelago when he got there after the timeskip i think.

It's also important to note this is not just a Sanji phenomenon. Usopp obviously does it because he is a sniper (with a slingshot! Lol) but if I recall correctly, Franky also got some crosshairs. Luffy too after his 2 year training. Now I am just going to point out that 3 of these users are confirmed CoO users. I have a feeling that maybe all CoO users use some kind of "crosshair" to locate specific targets and how well you can locate them depends on how well your CoO can filter out noise. I mean noise in the literal sense. Coby started hearing tons of voices, some disappearing, some screaming. His CoO wasn't filtered. He probably didn't have any crosshairs yet lol.

USPS makes sense
Franky is because hes a cyborg
Sanji I feel it's for comedic effect more than anything.

I think only ussop is CoO.

Just an opinion tho. Good catch

Which makes him all the more impressive. Imagine him with powerups and training progress like Luffy or Zoro?

I love it.... I've liked Sanji from the start for the same reason, specially his fights.

Not really. He trained the same for them, but doesn't need to be shown just like with DJ.

Also after latest chapter, think it's possible Sanji could develop more on COA looking how his techniques work and going need that more when facing more serious threats at the festival.

Though Skywalker shown early by CP9 and wasn't really comical. First time he use invisibility was accidental and to PO. Not really his moveset are gags. Just like with every character his actions can be made funny.

"Skywalker"? You have refined your humor Moe I appreciate!

Skywalk, hell's memories were joke abilities, even if skywalk is very useful and has been used quite a lot since it's introduction.

Typo exist lol.

So? Luffy uses Gears more than usual, but that doesn't mean they aren't helpful.

Hell Memories has potential as not just joke side to it, but something else more.

Pretty much, hopefully Oda will stop making Sanji a gag character and a jobber.
Also there is no point trying to argue with someone who doesn't understand what joke/gag abilities are

Sanji defeated Page One and handling himself with many opponents even prior. He even handling Drake right now and not much issues.

I understand, but you do know OP has comedy right? Didn't Oda been using Zoro comedy recently in this arc? You guys got know he does with every character. No exception. Look at the latest chapter to see.

Sanji never defeated Page One, and he is not handling Drake, or is running away from someone handling for you?

Yes OP has comedy its always funny laughing at Zoro, Luffy and Usopp's stupidity, but since time skip Sanji has been used too much as a gag
