    I remember hearing this a while back, any truth behind this, never been sold on Helenius he has size, raw power and determination but not alot else.

    It might be so.

    That being said Fury gets beaten living **** out of him and Brutally Knocked out if they meet.

    I like them both thou.:good

    Any source for this? 1st time I've heard it. Helenius ain't bad, he's just not great but sadly he's one of the best around ATM. Decent power though

    Holyfield was quoted at the weigh in that he wanted the winner.
