As he was dying he said outright that he hadn't fully grasped how heavily Urahara prepared and planned ahead for his battles until he learned that the guy fixed up Grimmjow just in case he'd be useful later. He understood Urahara's prowess as a tactician due to his status as a Special War Power and did his best to work around that by incapacitating him as best he could with Gift Ball Deluxe, killing off parts of his body with Gift Ring, keeping outside the range of his Bankai as soon as he realized there was one, etc., but it wasn't good enough because he didn't even consider the idea that Grimmjow would come back.
