The SHs are fighting Doflamingo's minions right now (Monet and Vergo), so they are getting a small taste of how sinister the birdman is. This arc seems very analogous to the little garden/drum island arc. Ceasar Clown is a deadly adversary, but he just doesn't give off the vibe of a major boss. And quite frankly, he isn't faring too well against Luffy who isn't going all out, which means he's underwhelming. Much like how Crocodile was the first major obstacle for the SHs in paradise, Doflamingo will be tantamount to that in the New World. He's being set up much in the same way as Crocodile was back then.
