    Tough to predict. If Helenius is 100 percent I would pick him. However he has only faced two no hope opponents in last two years. This is big step up.

    What I do know is winner of this fight is a legit top 5-10 heavyweight contender.

    Great news!

    Unfortunately Robert is not living a life of a professional boxer and taking it serious enough. Teper is going to put a lot of pain on Helenius and probably wins on points after lots of rough rounds with excessive close distance hugging from both guys.

    Teper by TKO. he is really picking up momentum and Helenius is old news even for his own promoter.

    Teper KO

    Helenius is semi retired and lost to Chisora a few years ago

    I like both of these guys and will not be dissapointed as long as the decsion is a fair one, but I go with the tide and say Teper. The kind of shoulder injury Hlelenius ahs is the kind that can end and permanantly cripple careers.

    Hope I am wrong and it is a great fight.

    Teper is mediocre... Just because he KO'd glass jawed Price doesn't make him a world beater.. I see some starting to overrate him. Teper struggled immensely with Musafarov, Oluokun, and Duhaupas. If Helenius is healthy and in shape he beats this guy easily.

    I agree. However I don't know if Helenius is healthy and right now Teper's confidence has to be through the roof. Either way it's a great win for either man. I do think a good jab handles Teper.

    I definitely think Teper is someone Helenius shouldn't overlook.... He's tough, looks like he can take a punch, and definitely can crack. I just think he's too limited and that if Helenius can establish as a jab as you can say that it would be an easy fight for him.

    If Helenius was with Sauerland he could take some lower risk fights. But it seems without a big promoter backing him he has to take quite a step up in opposition.

    Let's be honest: Deontay Wilder and his handlers wouldn't touch Teper with a 10ft pole!

    No way would Wilder fight Teper. This is a good fight. A strong fight. Good for division. Wish it wasn't three months away. Respect to both of them.

    Nice fight, winner probably cracks the top 10. Hard to say how this plays out due to not knowing exactly what Helenius has left but I think I'd still pick him to win.
