    Sprott seems to think Helenius's right arm is ****ed since the operation. Still he looked pretty comfortable against Sherman Williams winning 9-1 on my card despite getting rocked badly during one of those rounds. I'd say Williams is a pretty similar fighter to Sprott.

    I'm guessing this will be for the European title. Word is Pulev's giving that up.

    Most likely Helenius UD for me, even if Sprott does outwork Helenius there is a strong possibility he will be robbed like Chisora was, as it is taking place in Germany.

    Who's pulev going for then? Doesn't he have a high ranking with the wbc? Vitali will have his hands full next year if he decides to carry on, what with fury,arreola,stiverne,haye, pulev all in the mix.

    Helenius is terribly overrated. Chisora ****ing BATTERED him.

    Sprott isn't as good as Del Boy granted but I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if Helenius needs to rely another shitty hometown again.

    I'm afraid if Audley was able to KO Sprott just 2 years ago, then with the best will in the world he is also going to end up on the canvas against Helenius.

    It still REALLY angers me that Chisora lost to Helenius. It was the biggest robbery I have witnessed in recent years and surely Del Boy should be given a rematch when he gets his license back.

    He battered Helenius from pillar to post and in the last 3 rounds Helenius was a human punch bag running on fumes :good

    Nevertheless, Sprott is going to be lights out in this encounter.

    It's ridiculous that a British level gatekeeper is in contention with guys who are considered to be around the top 10 or top 20 in the world. Sprott outboxed Dimitrenko, when Dimitrenko was ranked around 5th or 6th best in the world. It's crazy. If someone like John McDermott had been managed better, he would have beaten a few of these highly touted but stiff Europeans.

    He doesn't fair to well against big stiff Europeans.

    Helenius KO, hard to see any other outcome
