    Helenius is the white guy,and no whyte defeated Chisora landing cleaner and more shots shots.

    I will be surprised because Helenius actually only won about 2 rnds if that against Chisora in what was a huge boxing clinic put on him and hes been inactive.

    That's how I remember the build up too, both had been stinking out the joint in their recent fights so it was expected to be more of the same.

    Most seemed to think it was only on the card as a hype builder as they are both nutters at the presser. The presser was supposed to be worth more than the actual fight.

    Helenius in his current state is a total bum. If he does OK it says more about Whyte than Helenius.

    On YouTube you see a lot of poms think it's an epic 50/50. Gtfoh this is a **** poor fight. Imagine the criticism Wilder would get fighting a bloke that Duhaupussy tore to pieces.

    Whyte is a joke, Wilder would ruin his life badly. Let's not ever call this a decent win, if you do you dksab and to listen to james5000 a bit more to get the knowledge up.

    I actually think that Helenius will cause some problems early despite being totally shot.. He's got a better jab and is a better long range boxer in general than Whyte. Like I said in an earlier post... It wouldn't even be remotely shocking if Helenius built an early lead before his lack of stamina, durability and punching power let him down.

    Early lead? I hope you don't favour Whyte over Wilder?

    Helenius is slow and stiff, if Whyte doesn't want to lose the credibility he has, he needs to chop this tree down quick smart.

    I never really looked at Helenius/Chisora but after watching that, I wonder why Helenius was ever talked about in terms other than being a bum anywhere.

    No I don't... But would make him a live dog in that one about 35-40%. Whyte can't box for ****... Helenius despite having no punching power or durability anymore still is probably the more fundamentally sound of the two. Given how bad he looked against Rill and Duhaupas an early KO for Whyte wouldn't be shocking either though.

    helenius is the one who attempted to put on a boxing clinic. chisora beat him no doubt about it , but it wasnt no clinic. chisora bullied him . ran right through him made it an ugly fight. but i kno wut ur saying it was just wasnt a boxing clinic.

    Would be quite funny if Helenius pulled a upset, just to see Hearn's face. Although I'm disappointed with this fight being made. Wouldn't be too surprised of this possible scenario. The meltdown on here with Wilder vs Helenius next year would be priceless.

    This. Helenius has no defense and is there for the taking. Whyte has enough power and skill to wear him down.
    Should be brutal.

    Helenius loses, maybe by stoppage late on or wide UD.

    I'm rooting for Whyte but only because with a win, he'll get even closer to that WBC mandatory position and make Wilder nervous.
