Adrian Granat vs Alexander Dimitrenko set for march 18

The Pike means business. This could be a real test for him if Dimitrenko shows up to fight.

 

dimitrenko is a frigging bum, i want him of the scene.

 

If Dimi quits as he usually does, I'd say he can do in in round 1 or 2

 

While it means little - Dimitrenko is still a step up for Granat now from what I remember of his previous opposition BUT Granat seems like a beast so far while Dimitrenko is the complete opposite of being a warrior in the ring... a stoppage win against is likely a certainty though if or when a stoppage happens really means little aside from being a spectacle.

Hoping this is a good year for Granat, I quite like him so far.

 

Even the current version of Dimitrenko is light years ahead of %90 of our WBC champion's opponents in the first half a decade of his pro career. If he takes care of Dimitrenko and gets Helenius later this year, It'll be very impressive career progress.

 

give it a rest. wilder beat duphuas who cleaned helenius' clock, the fin never beat anyone, he got battered by chisora.

 

Don't get emotional kid. Wilder is a world titlist now, which is why I specified the "first 5 years of his pro career". That's the comprasion. For a Wilder supporter to ridicule Granat's progress(or the interest in his progress) is rich and hypocritical. Your feelings towards Helenius is irrelevant here.

 

no ones getting emotional lad, you are bring up names who were beaten up in the past, and were never any good. your feelings towards helenius is relevant here.

 

I don't think Helenius is a top15 or even a top20 HW right now. But, he's still a very risky fight for a guy like Granat with all the flaws and question marks in his game. This'll be a fight that he may well get knocked out so It is applaudable for him to go after Helenius instead of padding his record against low level journeymen.

 

i dont understand why people slag off wilders' resume whilst trying to speculate granats resume being better in a year or 2. granat is still a very young prospect, helenius was hyped for no reason, when delboy outworked and was robbed i saw a bloke with no jab, no intelligence just a man with a bit of power and combo punching.

wilders' resume in the first 30fights was terrible, granat will then apparently beat serial quitter dimintrenko, and in a fight non scheduled or even talked about beat helenius who is past prime and beaten by a wilder victim,

 

I only brought up Wilder because a guy with Wilder on his avatar replied to me with a "" for praising Granat's willingness to step up. I didn't say his resume will be better than Wilder's overall within a year or ever. You just read too much into it.

And Granat looked sucker to overhand right against shorter opponents, so a fight with Helenius would be a very risky fight for him regardless of Robbie being overhyped, his lack of jab or him being KOd by a Wilder victim.

 

no problem, the amount of hype robbie got was disgusting towards the amount of hate wilder gets.
