    As I pointed out early in the thread. Still not sure how anyone could fool themselves into thinking that Helenius had a chance. Helenius has no chin, and that was a glancing blow.:lol:

    Dang, Helenius' seizure face was chilling in that overhead replay. Like he'd looked into the Deadlights.

    How can anybody say that was a dive. That was a clean right hand right on the chin.

    I would love to see Wilder Joyce. Joyce is another guy Taylor made for him. Slow plodder that eats punches to beat you.

    Look at different angle, that shot was not that good. Looks like a dive or Helenius has really bad chin.

    Yeah I don’t know how it’s physically possible for that average punch to the face (nowhere near the chin or temple) to lay a guy that size out.

    Wilder should never let anyone punk him into putting on 25 extra pounds ever again.

    The way Helenius was knocked out reminded me Lyakhovich KO loss to Wilder in 2013. Scary KO

    That punch didn't look all that hard to me and usually Wilder doesn't KO people backing up.

    Fair play to Wilder. I think if he fights Ruiz, he wins that fight. I'd steer him clear of Joyce and Usyk.
