    They have both competed at a high lvl in the shot put, so that's not surprising. Helenius has great potential as a heavy weight, but he needs gain some muscle and lose that flab. His current conditioning is atrocious for an athlete at such a young age.

    Wladimir Klitschko, a better one-punch KO artist than Haye, had trouble putting down Samuel Peter. Peter was given the worst KO loss of his career by Helenius.

    Chisora fought much smarter against Robert and never got caught in a wild exchange like he did against Haye. Helenius also injured his right arm, which generates his a lot of his power.

    What trouble? Wlad hugged Peter approximately 30 times per round making an early knockout rather unlikely. Once he let his hands go, Peter went down.

    If you're going to compare performances at least provide the full information.

    I hope youre not talking about their second fight as in that fight Wlad did minimal clinching and most clinches were started by Peter.

    The first fight, yeah.

    Probably Helenius although having said that it could be Wlider or Price but they can't really be judged when you consider how awful their opposition have been.

    I think and i may be in the minority but David Price has the power that can't be taught, natural and he's putting people to sleep.

    Personally I think if he's guided right he is or could be the future.
