    I love this fight.

    Helenius was a good contender a couple of years ago. If he's fully back from injury this should be a real test and if he can stop him early it's a great statement.

    I would also bet he has more power than Whyte too so should provide Joshua a chance to put up a disciplined performance against a big tall hard hitting heavyweight.

    Is this something you are suggesting, or have you actually heard something?

    Would be a good, but seriously gutsy match-up at this stage.

    I don´t see this happening. IMO Healthy Helenius is as big a threat to Joshua as two belt holders (Wilder, Fury). Helenius would have something to gain from that match but Joshua would take a massive risk considering the reward. But it would be a really good one 50/50-fight.

    Would be a good fight but hard to say if Helenius is the same fighter as before. It's a shame Teper was injured and unable to face him this weekend, that would have given us a better idea as to what Helenius has left.

    It's a dangerous fight if AJ should go down this route as Helenius clearly still hits hard. Wouldn't surprise me if they did at some point next year try to win the European title.

    It's difficult to rate Helenius at the moment. He hasn't faced a top fighter since years.

    The Helenius from 2010 would give Joshua all kind's of problems

    It's difficult to gauge Helenius due to his only good victory being a robbery over a not so good Chisora.

    Remember when Chisora schooled him? Good Times.

    Don't think that's going to happen. If it was clear that Helenius still had physical issues I'm pretty sure Joshua would jump at the chance, but he might be almost completely healed.
    That would make him a huge step up.

    Let's hope helenius has a good hiding he is due one due to his stupid heavy metal hair cut. Long overdue with a barrnet like that.

    I assume you're all unaware that Helenius is a white guy from Finland?

    You might as well put Joshua in there with me. I'd stand as much chance.

    Joshua doesn't want any of thor.

    Hearn had to beg him to get into the ring with Whyte, no way is this going to happen.

    Joshua gets knocked out if he challenge Helenius. Joshua like to go forward which suite very well to Helenius and his at his best at counter attack.
