I don't think it'd be much of a good story if we just switched back to Hueco Mundo only to see Yammy get curb stomped by Byakuya and Kenpachi. If that were the case, they could have done that way back when it first started. The way Kubo left the fight hanging after Yammy's transformation and is waiting to show the outcome makes it perfectly reasonable that those two captains are going to be biting off more than they can chew.

He is the strongest Espada after all, regardless of how big of an idiot he is. That's not the kind of claim you make lightly, especially after everybody has already felt somebody of Ulquiorra's level drop dead on the roof.
