Deontay Leshun Wilder vs. Robert Gabriel Helenius & Caleb Plant vs. Anthony Dirrell RBR.

This is what i like about Wilder, he respect my time. This was going to happen, either 1st, second or third round.
It's about time thought we see Wilder power against some iron chin guys.

 

Wilder almost knocked his head into the nosebleeds.

 

That'd be sweet too, no time wasting. AJ should scrap that December date, recover and make the fight early 2023.

 

Look at the replay. If you can’t see that a half extended open handed slap to a guys nose can’t knock someone out then I can’t help you.

 

If that’s true, then Helenius needs to win an Oscar because that was an impressive acting job.

 

We've still got to see how Wilder reacts when he has to take a few....

The power's obviously still there and that punch didn't travel that far but Helenius was moving forward and took it full on.

 

When I like a fighter, I want to see them pushed to their absolute limit. I'm a fan, not a manager.

 

Nobody should be suprised about the outcome.

Unless Wilder's head was no longer in the game (which was possible because he's been stopped twice in a row) - a near-38 years-old Helenius was probably not going to be have much of a chance. Yeah, Helenius got a couple of stoppage victories over Kownacki but Adam is a brawler and those guys get eaten alive by boxer-punchers at HW. Sothere's absolutely no reason to give Helenius any sort of ranking at HW.

 

Oh they both absolutely knew it would happen as well. That’s why these friends scripted the fight and why Helenius was so relaxed. I didn’t doubt for a second that Wilder would brutally KO this guy. And I can understand, you don’t want to damage your friend. But they messed up the act. Wilder didn’t even touch him with his knuckles.

 

Geezus, first people are saying Shields IS TAKING PEDS, now people are saying Helenius took a dive? You gotta love ESB man.

 

Zhang vs Wilder is the best southpaw puncher vs the best orthodox puncher in history


Make it happen. We deserve it

 

I'm not acting dense. I expected(and hoped more than anything else) for a better Helenius than this. But this was clearly someone who showed up disinterested and unmotivated. Compare Helenius at 238 vs in Kownacki I vs. this. Don't act like you're some sort of Nostradamus here and anyone who gave Helenius a chance based on those fights and Wilders recent rough patch is a total kook tinfoil hat nutjob. You have plenty of ridiculous predictions in which you performed insane mental gymnastics in an attempt to justify your prediction.

 

Im down for that.
