    If Musafarov gives Helenius the fits too like he did vs Teper and Boytsov, that means he's a top euro prospect.

    He doesn't have a promoter, does he? Could be a very similar case to Joey Dawejko.

    I don't know what promoters in Germany are thinking.

    Tough to say,yes.Why Sauerland signed Sakhin and Kabayel but didn't sign Musafarov is mystery to me.

    Rossy is a brawler who stays right in his oppnents grill.

    Stiverne is gonna let Rossy pound away and nail him on the way out with a counter and drop/stop him.

    Rossy, sadly.....no boxing ability. But in his defense, has come a long way with his limited skillset and similarly to Guinn in that he's fought almost everyone who was coming up during his prime.:think

    I agree stylistically Rossy is Taylor made for Stiverne's sharp counters because he isn't very mobile. But Rossy has gradually improved and is a big guy. If he can make it past the 5th it could get very ugly and sloppy. We'll see tonight

    Helenius will fight Teper with no tune up,bad for Helenius,but I think he will loose without it.In my view he is ko to happen,with his non existing defense.
