    You nailed Teper vs Price. I won't pick against you on this although I was hoping for Helenius to re-emerge as a top contender I was impressed with him several years ago.

    Why? Helenius has never been anything special and he is shot now. Teper knocks him out easily, but don't wanna see Teper - Klitschko at the moment.

    Im rooting for Bob, but I think Teper is going to take it. Actually Teper stopped Helenius in Bundesliga before Helenius went pro. Good fight.

    Really? What was your first clue about Helenius being shot?

    Struggling with Sherman Williams, Michael Sprott. Pulev was toying with him in sparring, made him look like a fool. Lost to Chisora in his prime.

    Helenius is not shot. He is decent. He has always been decent. Nothing more, nothing less.

    You guys seem to forget that Robbies hand issues were a big reason why he's looked so underwhelming in certain fights.

    As we all know very well by now, he was suffering from the injury in all those fights.

    That's ridiculous. His right hand is made of glass, but there was nothing wrong with his left hand. Yet Sherman Williams was able to wobble him, and Sprott landed many punches. That has almost nothing to do with his right hand injury. Helenius has a very poor jab for such a big guy. He only has power, that's it. Teper has even got better power I think.

    In Scandinavia boxingfans said Helenius never came back in his old shape after his injury-problems and that a couple of years ago.

    Based on what???

    Robbies destruction of Peter>>>> Anything Teper has done. Knocking out Sprott, Rogan and Price doesn't come close.
