    What is your thoughts?

    I originally thought Helenius is getting ktfo in few rounds(which is possible) but this might be entertaining hard fight after all...

    I really hope the Whyte and Joshua fights both produce a good few rounds.

    Helenius is average skilled but can take a beating. i think he gets pummeled pretty good in this one and takes far too many power punches.Whyte should stop him inside 12.i would think around 9 rnds.

    I hope Helenius goes out with a bang. Upset here would be refreshing too.

    Funny feeling this fight will steal the show. Kinda like Whyte vs Chisora did on the undercard of Joshua Molina.

    Helenius is a live dog, unlike Takam.

    Have a feeling that Helenius will get blasted out early, but let's wait and see.

    I expect the Whyte guy to win, but I won't be surprised at all if Helenius upsets him.
    I'm not that impressed with Whyte. Chisora beat him imo.

    I would've favored Helenius at his best.

    Dude's serious damaged goods, now. Maybe he turns the clock back, but I'm not holding my breath for it.

    I wouldn't say Whyte vs. Chisora "stole" the show. Everybody knew heading in that it would be the 100% most entertaining match on the card.

    I have a feeling that Helenius will start out well and bank the early rounds only to get stopped sometime between rounds 5-8. He's still the better boxer of the two by far... But power and chin are gone.

    Actually many were dreading it and expecting a sluggish affair. I think the fight turned out to be FAR better than most anticipated.

    Helenius was one of my favorites back in 08-11...... Would love nothing more than for him to turn the clock back here. Don't think it's likely though.

    Helenium is the Nordic Price at this point. Huge punch but can't take one to give one. Whyte will be at a size disadvantage though so he may have a hard time with his size. Helenius is more stationary and slower than Whyte
