Helenius vs Brewster higlights

Brewster has been on the slide since his war with Lyakhovich... the man is shot. Wladimirs 'revenge' shouldn't get overrated either, the version of Brewster he beat wasn't the version he lost to.

Still, I give Helenius his due credit - he did what he had to do, and he certainly ain't protected. Dimitrenko fought bums with losing records at that stage of his career. And how many other 10fight-prospects have some good names on their record? Let alone a former beltholder, who was considered very dangerous at one time? Helenius is in the HW picture now, and with the state of the division as it is, I'm sure he can cause some trouble.

 

Look at the clip again, Brewster had KNEE PROBLEMS. His taped knee is so damaged, he had problems catching himself when he launched an attack and Helenius stepped out of the way. That's also why Helenius' punches had so much "impact", Brewster couldn't catch himself because his knee would not support unplanned stepping. Of course, punches from such a big guy landing flush do their damage, but not in the sense of putting Brewster on ***** street from stunning him. The KD was the result of Brewster stepping in, getting hammered during the step, and then his leg giving out.

Still, Helenius has shown some good variety of punches, the ability to weather Brewsters scarce attempts at launching his vaunted hooks from a jump, and not losing himself under the fire. However, he is not a puncher, in the sense of Brewster himself.

 

I always thought Brewster was overrated, even when he stopped Wlad and the big frozen Pole.

 

Um...Helenuis, to me, has a good chance at becoming Champion one day. He's BIG, got good fundementals, he can punch to the body, has pretty good pop from what I'm seeing, and seems like he's a smart fighter from the little I've seen of him. He's still somewhat green, so maybe after some more time on the world stage, he can really show his full potential... I like what I see here from him.

 

This is a puncher:

I didn't say Helenius was no good, I said he is not a PUNCHER. He doesn't even have the physique of a puncher, he has thin arms for his size (compare that to other lanky guys like both Klitschkos, Dimitrenko, etc.), or a strong torso like other punchers have.

 

:good Despite his physique he looks pretty good...kinda like a HW Kelly Pavlik.

Stamina looks good too. Hope he goes somewhere.

 

man there was so much ****ery going on in this fight..germany wanted krasniqi to be a champ so bad....brewster legit ko'ed for the 10 count in that 8th round with the left hook but the ref was on that bull****...lamon had to put him away in order the win the fight and did that **** spectacularly...thats the lamon i remember

 

He does look a bit like a heavyweight Kelly Pavlik.

 

his buddy james toney must be talking mad **** about him right now for losing to a white boy. brewster from the city nap he was at one ametuer fight my coach know him well

 

helenius is with punching power on the same level with vitali
but no way he hits harder than wlad!

 

Jesus, here we go.

He obviously has power.

Can we give som of these prospects a chance?
