Robert Helenius fought in an exhibition match on November 14th.

I just watched that and Helenius is lucky it didnt count on his record as that would have been the second gift hes had since Chisora.....

He has not improved, hes easy to hit even for a small journey man, he gets out worked easy and just covers up.

If him and Chisora have a rematch Chisora beats him again.

He will certainly be no help to Klitschko to prepare for Fury!! Hes just too static and slow.

 

Is it because Teper, Helenius and Boytsov are not any good or this Musafarov guy is terribly underrated? He has three fights in three years if I'm correct.

 

Either way it highlights how poor Wlads sparring is.

Helenius, Scott, Towers. Who are they! They have losses to Chisora and Browne!!

I saw an interview on IFL with Johnny Nelson and he said the foam on the ring is very thick and soft and makes it hard to move around on so slowing the sparring partners down. Towers was also interviewed and he said a tall cruiserweight was giving Wlad problems with movement and Banks pulled him out after just a round!

Sounds more like a comfidence building excercise than a training camp for your hardest fight.....

 

Source?

 

Source for what?

 

For the thickness of the foam on Wlads sparring ring go to 4.30 in and listen for about half a minute. http://youtu.be/bnqPUI15yOo

 

I deffinitly watched and heard Richard Towers say that a tall cruiserweight was moving and switch hitting and giving Wlad problems and that Banks only had him in there for one round but it seems to now have been edited out! Johnny Nelson mentions about the sparring partner giving Wlad problems early in the vodeo where they talk about Tysons recent rants. He doesnt mantion about being pulled out after just one round.

They did edit out what Whyte said about McCracken being Joshuas trainer and thats supposedly because hes working with amateurs as well which you arent allowed to do. So its comceivable they edited out something about sparring so Towers didnt get in the ****.

 

Found it!

Only two entries abour him on google. Apparently he's a free agent.

 

Musafarov is a missed opportunity.

 

Sure they did

Didn't hear anything about sparring partners giving wlad problems in that video. And your point about the ring, it's just designed that way to make it more exhausting in camp, like shadow boxing with weights on your arms etc.

 

i wouldnt read too much in this fight. this was basicly helenius wanting to go some rounds before teper clash.

helenius vs teper will be intense match. better dont blink
