    A couple of promos

    If any Russian or Estonian (I think they might be speaking Estonian in the second vid) speakers or who speak similar languages and understand what's being said could give a brief summary of what Povetkin and Helenius say in these videos I would greatly appreciate it.

    And a little treat for those of you who appreciate a ''handsome Russian athlete'' (male) in a pair of Speedos.

    Don't know Estonian so I'll translate only what Sasha said.

    He said:

    Robert (Helenius) is good, strong fighter, and a humble guy.

    As for Wach - I'm just getting ready and want to put an interesting show. I'm in good shape.

    About Helenius - he has all chances to win European and World titles.

    Looking forward to this one. Povetkin wins a hard fought decision.

    Thanks a lot. Hopefully Helenius can make another run at it he has had absolutely terrible luck with injuries, contract disputes with his promoter etc :good

    Povetkin has always looked good shadow boxing. Compare him to Wlad who looks buffoonish punching air.

    I think Helenius beats Teper, based on Teper-Duhaupas fight (which was very close).

    Teper hits hard, but overall he's not so good - he's slow and predictable.

    Can Wach survive to lose on points?? Good odds on that.

    :lol: Handsome isn't quite the word I'd use for Sasha. Boogery comes to mind.

    Agreed. I don't think you even need to cite the Duhaupas fight to justify your statement. Teper really isn't very good. He is Edmund Gerber Mk. 2, like I've been saying for years now. I'm not sure why all of a sudden he is getting hyped. People are desperate for new blood at heavyweight, I guess.
