    Forget Wilder fighting like this as his head will come off.

    Joshua and Chisora should retire together tonight regardless of what happens next tonight.

    AJ seems to listen to the trainer.

    Why can’t a trainer just tell him “steam in and batter the guy” and let us get to bed

    Round 2

    Helenius is blocking as Joshua tries forcing his way inside behind a strong line drive jab. Helenius with a long jab tracking Joshua on the outside. Both jabbing and keeping the right hand coiled & ready. Joshua is first to gamble on it and lands one along the side of the jaw driving Helenius into the ropes. Helenius takes it well. Jabs in multiples from Helenius at mid-range, walking Joshua down cautiously. Joshua flicks a jab out and makes him scamper back a step. Both on high alert, respectful of each other's power. Helenius is dropping jabs to the body on a diagonal from a straight up stance.

    10-9 Helenius, close

    20-18 Helenius

    AJ would be apprehensive if Sunny Edwards was in the ring with him

    His team knew but they allowed Helenius to continue with a Mickey Mouse fight and risk losing hundreds of thousands in purse money. Sounds legit.

    Joshua is finished as a top level fighter. Its just about stacking the p's now.
    He has no front foot game at all anymore he is terrified of being landed on.
    Heart the size of a pea and should just retire.

    I was just away to mention AJ’s eye taking a dent just as Bellew said it. Surely he won’t get Zhang’d here

    Round 3

    Helenius is going jab for jab with Joshua, back and forth. Each man leaning away after landing his own to ride the other's. See-saw. Helenius is walked into the ropes and takes a can-opener right across his waistband. Joshua is waiting too long to pull trigger, and Helenius is emboldened to step in and drop a two-piece on him. Joshua ducks and pushes him away. Body shot by Helenius. The crowd is BOOING. Joshua tries a 1-2 up top and the crowd gets revved up, but Joshua does nothing to follow up. He chases Helenius with a jab but it falls short as Helenius pulls his chin back and leans away. Body jab by Joshua.

    10-9 Joshua, close

    29-28 Helenius

    Honestly if Helenius can land 1 big one I think Joshua’s arse will go
