Hot take: I actually liked Khrysaor beating Percy. It was refreshing to see him totally out of his plane which was supposed to happen in like the ancient lands. Also, it makes sense. Sure Percy is a son of Poseidon but so is Khrysaor. The only difference is that Khrysaor has got a few thousand years more of experience (and a friendly dolphin army).
Would it have been nice to see an extended battle? yeah. But does that mean the writing was bad? No.
