Wlad is just realizing his potential and honestly I don't see this fight being any different than the Wlad-Mercer or Wlad-McCline fights
Briggs KO'd Mercer with one shot, Wlad couldn't do that. Also Wlad is a flavor of the moth, and will not be a long reigning champ, none of the current guys will IMO.
