    Chisora is judged by many after the fury fight when he came in at 261 lbs.

    If he comes in at a trim 240 lbs. this will be a hell of a fight. Good matchmaking. On the same card is Povetkin-Boswell.

    Dereck was in shape for his warm-up fight on Friday - he's lost about 20 pounds since the Fury fight.

    Damn......if DelBoy woulda just come in at 240 vs Fury, we wouldn't have to see him battered by Helenius and he could sit back at home blasting the likes of Price, McDermott, Sexton etc while defending HIS BBoC belt and awaiting a Klitschko call.....but he shows up at 261:-( and gets potshotted to a decision loss. What a waste:rofl

    I agree.

    If he had been in shape, he probably would have defeated Fury. Because of the extra weight, he slowed down by the 5th round in that fight.

    This could be a great fight, I think Helenius should be able to out box and later hurt Chisora, but Chisora will be his toughest test to date.

    Damn EPIX! That two-bit network is starting to **** me off.

    It's good for the sport of boxing that an American TV network is showing heavyweight doubleheaders like this.

    Although the EPIX heavyweight telecast in March (Vitali-Solis) was a disappointment because of Solis and his bad knee, the second one in August (Povetkin-Chagaev and Helenius-Lyakhovich) had two decent fights.

    It will look sort of like Helenius-Peter, But Chisora is in better shape, He actually fought in a stay busy fight on Friday and was in good shape. But anyways Helenius hits too hard for him so I predict Helenius KO 9.

    :nono Helenius is powerful. Brutal KO wins to Samuel Peter and Siarhei Liakhovich. Delboy won't be much different.

    Helenius is not a good boxer but he does have legit power in both hands. He will shatter this Brits Chin in brutal and embarrassing fashion.

    Helenius, all day and everyday. Robbe is to patient of a boxer
    for chisora to be able to impose his will, and the power of the
    Fin will be a big problem for the portly and vastly overrated
    brit. I don't even care if del boy comes in at 245, he's losing
    this fight and dramatically.

    Chisora is in far better shape than he was for Fury. He's lost over 20 lbs since that pathetic performance last summer. Still, I don't see Chisora hanging in there with Helenius. Maybe Derek gives Helenius a scare or two, but it should be over between the 6th and 9th rounds. Helenius hits too hard and too accurately to lose this one.

    Yes.

    I expect Helenius to win, but it'll be quite a test for him, if CHisora is in shape this time.
