I think Wlad now has the best chance of anyone out there to clean up the division. There isn't anybody else out there really. If he does as Manny Steward hinted after the fight take on Calvin Brock then we could be in for a great fight, aside from that there really isn't anybody else out there who could stop Wlad.

Not that I really rate him, I personally can't stand fighters like him who have such massive physicial advantages but are only slightly more aggressive than Audley Harrison.

Ok he knocked out Byrd, but seeing as Bryd looked like he was fighting two weight divisions below him then I ain't really impressed.

And talking of Bryd his record really isn't imppressive at all. He's only been champion for so long because of two things, 1) He's always avoided fighting any decent fighters, and 2) He only fights once a year, twice in a leap year.

An example Nicolai Valuev seems sure to follow.
