The same scenario may apply here. Buggy may have an inherent advantage against all swordsman, but Mihawk is in a totally different class than him. Who knows though. Maybe Oda is trying to mess with our heads by making Buggy look like a pathetic weakling, when in fact if he gets serious he can hold his own (something he has yet to do because he's always clowning around  ). |
Actually I think Buggy's situation maybe something similar to a logia. Those who can utilize haki can probably prevent him from splitting, much in the same way they can prevent a logia user from turning into an element. Although if Buggy can split before Mihawk gets there he might be able to avoid this, however Buggy isn't anywhere near that fast.
