Helenius Not As Good As We Thought? Or Chisora Better?

BoxingDomain · 12-03-2011, 11:43 PM

After the fight today . . .is Helenius just not as good as previously thought, or is Chisora better?

I think I was accurate with my opinion on Helenius. Horrible boxer and far, far too stiff. He may have decent power but he has terrible skills. He's the definition of "stiff".

But I also think I underrated Chisora a bit. He's a good fighter when in shape. His best quality though, is his fearlessness.

BoxingDomain · 12-03-2011, 11:49 PM

I voted "Helenius not as good"...but it wasn't an easy choice, because Chisora really came to fight, I kept thinking Chisora was going to wear down and Helenius would eventually KO him, but Chisora just kept coming forward (not much return fire from Helenius probably helped).

TerryESB · 12-03-2011, 11:50 PM

Both fighters looked good

Chisora had the more crisp, quick, accurate punches so he outworked Helenius.

DelBoy proved he is a top 20 HW, and HOPEFULLY has put his demons to rest.

TerryESB · 12-03-2011, 11:53 PM

Helenius boxes like Jason Miller. They have an unothodox but highly effective style.

eazym1979 · 12-04-2011, 12:06 AM

Both is the correct answer, Heleinus is a overrated because the three

past titleholder he defeated proir to tonight fight were either past their

prime and in decline or they were inactive. Chisora is a bit underrated

an outweight Chisora vs Fury wasnt much of a fight but an in shape

Chisora is going to be be tough to handle. But its not like anyone of

these guys are ready for the Klitschko brother's anytime soon, their

both young let them have more time to develop.

That could be...I should have made that a poll option.

Helenius broke his hand. It happens. Chisora did a good job, but lets not go too far in expectations.

TerryESB · 12-04-2011, 01:04 AM

Oh, they both are really skilled.

It's at least the 3rd or 4th time it's happened already in like 15 fights so his girl hands seem to be a problem for him.

PetethePrince · 12-04-2011, 01:10 AM

Both

theboy_racer · 12-04-2011, 01:10 AM

A mixture of both.

Chisora looked like crap against Fury but was in awful shape for that fight.
