What I found interesting is the fact, that Blackbeard believes, Burgess is enough to take the fruit. Either he underestimates Luffy or places a lot of trust in his Fleet Captain.

But keep in mind that two years have passed. Sure, the desire to beat the $h*t out of him would still be there, but it would be in a more latent, biding one's time manner, rather than a bloodrush to the head one.
Although since it's Luffy we're talking about...
As for Burgess, I'm thinking a little of both. Two years have passed, so Burgess must have powered up as well, and last Blackbeard saw Luffy, Luffy was just an ant scrambling amongst giants.
