Some people tend to forget that, Lucci did not just transform out o whim. He eventually realized that Luffy's powers gives him near-immunity to physical attacks, so even if it looked as if he was winning at first (he was dodging all of Luffy's attacks) he knew he wasn't really dealing any damage to Luffy.
He transformed into beast form in order to use his CLAWS and hurt him, even though he knoew he would become slower and unable to use Kamie.
Also, Lucci gave HIS OWN appreciation of Gear 2nd, and considering the way Luffy fought, its clear he wasn't used to entering it yet (he even had to turn it off quickly the first time he used against Lucci). So they were equally strong on EL.
But Luffy (along his crew) get stronger as time passes, and he's been using Gear 2nd so much, its like a 2nd nature to him now.

Lucci has won the first time, and he weren't transformed in Leopard and Luffy neither in Gear 2. In the Final Fight lucci has nearly won for the 2nd time. Wouldn't give Ussop him the morale he need for to stay and continuing to fight, would Lucci win. So Lucci and Luffy are almost equally strong.
