    You really think so?

    I think a guy that got beat by Chisora should get KO'd by Stiverne

    You've obviously seen the fight, or heard about the hometown decision.

    But if so, you should KNOW about the injury Helenius suffered prior to the bout, causing him to be able to throw only a handful of meaningful R hands early int he bout. One of which sent Chisora rolling backwards across the ring buzzed and nearly out.

    That said, I said HEALTHY Helenius STOPS him.

    The post-injury Helenius has altered his approach to include more movement, better defense and working behind the jab rather than banging it out until his opponent succumbs to his power.

    Now, Ive read that he's constantly in the gym, and in perhaps the best shape of his career. Whether it's true....IDK. But if HE EVER steps back into the ring, I would hope it was vs a solid journeyman like Gavern/Ding/Walker etc so we can gauge his rehabilitation.

    If he's still got stopping power, but is boxing smart like he did vs Tank and Sprott, he'd win by decision.

    Helenius, even without the fearsome combination power< plodding CPing Stiverne.:good

    Helenius wins a decision or gets stopped by Stiverne. Both are possible. I will never get Helenius's fight with Sherman Williams out of my mind.
