And how exactly do you propose he should have "disposed of" them? Kill them? He definitely wouldn't have done that at that point in his story.

The REAL mistake he made was taking the time to gloat to Aku when he was about to kill him. The whole "your tricks will not work this time, Aku. This is the end for you!" thing. If he hadn't bothered with that little bit of gloating, he could have killed Aku before the gangsters knocked him out.
