    Yep not a fan of his training in general but the worst part of his work is him demanding fighters to go beyond call of duty and putting them in danger.

    Well we'll soon enough know if it's true. I've had similar surgery and have been left with about a 3 inch scar due to the operation, Helenius can't actually hide that. On the plus side he should be on the morphine for a few days which almost makes the whole thing worth while.

    He'll be back in a few months with no obligation to fight his mandatory or fight for the belt or even rematch Chisora.

    Injuries in boxing are questionable to say the least.

    It's better than the "broken little toe" excuse I s'pose.

    He'll be losing his belt because of the injury. Him and Sauerland will also be losing money with him not fighting for 6 months, hardly a very sneaky fake injury.

    I hate to see a fighter bow out on a defeat, so hopefully he can recover.

    He doesn't care about losing his belt. He makes decent money and him and his people know he lost his last fight. He was being forced into another hard fight due to the belt. 6 months off protects the gravy train.
