Remember how easily Jason defeated Lityerses back in The Lost Hero, and he barely remembered his previous training. I don't think memory has anything to do with how well you fight. Even if Jason didn't remember his training exactly, it came to him naturally. Just like when first took Ivlis out of his pocket in The Lost Hero, he said it felt like he'd flipped multiple times before. Percy didn't remember his training but how many Romans did he take down in The War Games? Even if you don't have the memory of the training it's "imbedded in you" so to say. A bunch of teenage romans are not the same thing as a legendary 3000 years old back-from-the-dead Greek swordfighter. I'm pretty sure there's no way to compare it. There was a whole group of them. I think that counts. Percy was fighting a group of trained Roman warriors without his memory, when Jason only had to fight one skilled sword fighter. And what about the monsters Percy defeated without his memory? Stheno and Euryale weren't the easiest monsters to face especially when they couldn't die. Percy also mentioned fighting a sea monster. Oh and what about when Percy, Frank , and Hazel had to fight the Amazons?
