    I think Holyfield, now days, is a good fight for Helenius that he wins. Haye and Adamek KO's Holyfield easy!

    I cannot believe how many think Helenius would beat Arreola. That guy is totally wrong for him at this point, believe me!

    I think Helenius was also stopped in the amateurs by Timurziev, Povetkin and Romanchuk. So he is hardly immune to the power of a big, modern era heavyweight(s).

    Everyone just relax with him and enjoy his progression.

    This dude is raw and beat and beat a past it Sam Peter. He can punch though,, but he cant ko Arreola.. Chambers is too slick for him, he isnt Klitchko so get the idea of a ko win over chambers out your mind.

    Povetkin- Id favor Povetkin but dont know about his chin.. He should be able to outwork outbox Helenius

    BOystov - is fun to watch and has skills.. But can get wild and i have a feeling the Bigger Helenius might come from behind to put out Boystov

    Arreola- Man Helenius picking the wrong guy to goe to war with.. Arreola would blast him but would be fun while it lasts. Especially once Shields gets Chris into shape then this might be easy.

    CHambers-- Out boxes Helenius... Helenius might win a couple rounds with his aggressiveness and bigger punching. But for the most part Fast Eddie out slicks him to a cler decision.

    Adamek- Would box rings around him.. :think BUt then agains Adamek better not put his so-so hW chin out there, or get careless and to confident .. After beating up Helenius he for so many rounds he might get caught with a hail mary.

    He has physcially matured consideraly since the amatuers. Guys his size are not in thier physcial prime until they hit 30.

    Helenius has impressed me. Might be the heir apparent after the Klitschko's retire. I would add Pulev and Glazkov to the list as well. Actually there are quite a few young heavies out there with talent. Boystov and Povektin seemed to regress a bit, but don't write them off.

    Povetkin and Helenius are both in the Sauerland team. So them fighting against eachother is a bit unlikely. Although it seems that Helenius is a member of Sauerland's "inner circle" as Povetkin is mostly training in USA and Russia.

    Robert helinius does not look that good to me but he has been well matched and fought some named fighters just at the right time.

    He looked very poor in patches against Peter but he does have talent and obviously power. I think there is too much hype around the guy because he carries a dig but he needs to show a bit more dexterity in his work. Lets see how he does against another young fighter who has othing to lose.

    Personally the heavyweight who I will be keeping an eye on, is Bermane Stiverne.

    Helenius is a Finn. He was born at Sweden, He did grow up as Finland Porvoo, Presented Finland at Ams. Ask him which natinalioty he is. He is a Finn.

    If Robert Were Swedish he would propably play ping-Pong or be Men Ballerina at Cotton Land. And Being Swede would not save him for being Glass Jaw either. For instance look Ingemar Johansson, their Biggest Boxing Figure.:good

    Swedens can have him after he is sacrificed for either of the three Champions.:yep
