RH all the way, in the first great rematch of the evening! 10/9/2021 Now that's a Viking warrior for you! Hellacious Helenius does it again. STRAIGHT from the very first second of the fight too! That was quite a shiner! Got kinda desperate there, didn't you Adam? ...with all that blowing low. ("Babyface" with a beard? That's not right)
Kownacki is finished after that. When you make Robert Helenius look like RJJ, you're probably not gonna grab a belt. I feel like Helenius could knock off a lot of these lower top 10 characters.
Adam Kownacki is the new "Foul Pole" Yes. Helenius looked better last night than he has in about ten years.
I was kind of shocked how bad Kownacki looked. The first fight was at least competitive until he got caught but this one was just so one sided. Seems Helenius had more belief in this fight and imposed himself right from the bell and Kownacki got exposed badly.
Hellboy could potentially upset any of the puddings masquerading as top contenders in the division right now. Andy Ruiz would be ripe for the picking IMO. That's a fight I'd like to see next. A Chisora rematch would also be highly earned. Moreso than the borefest Parker one anyway.
Helenius vs Ruiz would be interesting. I don't want to see him in there against the A-list guys, but I'm down on Ruiz. Kownacki needs to call it a day. He's never going to get back to the financial level he was, and his style is not conducive to longevity. Better to call it now.
Kownacki looked like Joe Mesi last night. These regional fighters need to be matched carefully, because what happens is they get to world level and bludgeoned and ruined. Just like Mesi. Glen Tapia is another one.
Adam is a good guy, but he should find something else to do. He's already taken way to many clean head shots. Dude has a family to think of; I hope that they convince him to lay his gloves down.
It's not like that...he's been involved in the sport for 20 years. If you're sparring hard multiple times a week for decades and have hard pro fights and KO losses, you ARE brain damaged. A KO or two more isn't going to change much. CTE is a matter of when not if for these guys.
Adam Kownacki legitimized Helenius. Good on Helenius, ive been his longest doubter going back to his peak.
