It's not like in terms of enemy toughness the original Naruto series is ahead. By the time of episode 30 the toughest fight of the original Naruto was Zabuza, and Orochimaru was starting to get introduced. In Boruto's case, they already had the Shin fight, who, despite popular opinion, was still an MS user with a whole army of MS users By the time of episode 70-80, Naruto introduced Gaara, Orochimaru, and was starting to introduce Itachi. By the time of episodes 70-80 in Boruto, Momoshiki and Kinshiki will most likely be introduced (i'd wager around episode 50), and it's not like the other villains from Naruto are even comparable with them. Then the whole Kara stuff will take place. If we are comparing Boruto to the original Naruto (not shippuden) the battle scales will probably not even be comparable.
