I mean, Oimo and Kashii alone basically carried Ennies Lobby before CP9 showed up.

The way I'm seeing it, "strength" in One Piece is not as linear as many people think it is. The deal with Giants is that they in general have very high tier attack potency and physical strength just from being Giants. Like take Oimo and Kashii vs Nusjuro. Nusjuro is a much more powerful fighter with much better Haki and sword skills, but Oimo and Kashii were physically powerful enought to successfully restrain him in beast form.
