Wlad now has a big responsibility to try and prove himself THE World Champion. He may be the #1 fighter of the moment, but that is not the same thing.

He is the only one IMO, capable of clearing the mess that is the Heavyweight division up. He has the physical tools to do it, he now needs to prove he has the mental make-up, to become the man.

It is very important to the long term mainstream viability of the sport, that we have an Undisputed World Heavyweight Champion, and certainly in the short to medium term, IMO Wlad is the only fighter who could do this.
