Even though she lost, I personally count her vs. Moriah as her second 1v1 as a SH.
The only thing memorable about Robin vs. Hammond was Robin showing off her new Cuerpo Fleur and Double Clutch techniques. And I hated that Hammond was already damaged from G2 Luffy's attack on him before the two had their exchange.
Tbh, I never thought for a moment that Robin would fight Diamante. It was pretty clear to me that he was always meant to be Kyros's opponent. But Damage I felt the same way about him teasing Robin vs. Gladius, especially after Robin's speech. I now know the reason he ultimately let Bartolomeo defeat him to build him up as a future member of Luffy's Grand Fleet, however, it was still really frustrating that she was the only Straw Hat to not legit defeat one of the Executives while he let Usopp get two victories off Sugar! And even Brook got to defeat Jora before he and his group left for Zou! Honestly, I was so peeved about how Oda handled Robin fight-wise in that arc that it took a while for me to realize that while she didn't get her own fight, she still got to show her battle prowess and still managed to have some awesome moments against Trebol, Diamante, Gladius, Sugar's Headcracker Dolls, and Hakuba. Plus, I thought Dressrosa was really great for Robin character-wise.
I just want things to be much different for Robin in this new arc. I want to see her get a lot more screentime, do more than just restrain her opponents when she fight them, and be given great battle moments just like Nami got in WCI. Something that I don't want to see, though, is her stuck being someone's bodyguard. Even if she did protect Rebecca like a boss. I actually liked the scene after the end of the Kyros vs Diamante fight where it's revealed she got injured by some of of the spike iron balls from Death Enjambre, but kept her pain hidden from Kyros and Rebecca.
