    Wilders glass jaw can't take a punch from The Viking Helenius. Helenius by TKO in round 5.

    Nqh i don't see it. Helenius chin is not good, not glass, but not good.

    Wilder KO3. Helenius chin in relation to his opponents power is weaker than it is for Wilder. And Wilder has better defense.

    Helenius by TKO in rounds 1-6 or 7-12 have 25/1 odds. Seems good value to put even just 10$.

    Might be worth a small wager then.

    If Helenius can avoid the big right, he can pull off the upset.

    Unlikely unless Fury ruined Wilder. Helenius is far too upright, with his chin in the air and his tendency to lean back to avoid shots has already seen him KO'ed by right hands vs Washington and Duhaupas and Wilder hits far, far harder than either of them. Wilder by brutal highlight reel KO.

    Agree with exception to Wilder defense. He just has none. Helenius one can't be that bad.

    As bad as Wilder's defence is he at least moves his head and makes the most of his size, Helenius in contrast is way more upright and just leans back, he's a sitting duck for Wilder step in right hand.

    Big Robert has nothing much to lose. Neither have great chins so whoever lands first.

    I hope so. But unlikely.
