While I do think that Wlad is the best all around fighter in the division at the moment, I still think he has plenty of vulnerabilities.
I don't buy into the 'glass jaw' argument, but I do believe that Wlad has trouble when he gets caught flush by a solid puncher. I honestly think a lot of it's mental. I think the reason he's done his falling down routine in the past is a combination of weak chin and stamina, coupled with an inability to overcome his fear in the ring. It's like he gets flustered if he gets caught, tries too hard to compensate for it, and winds up gassing out.
That being said, I think Manny's done an outstanding job of working on Wlad's psyche. Let's face it...that's the only thing beating Wlad in a HW ring these days.
Wlad by UD.
