    :good
    He can mount up some more wins if he stays away from the brothers for a bit. That punch of his is downright scary. I can't believe what he did with Brewster. I guess Lamon was a bit shot but still...his chin had not really let him down in the past quite like that fight.

    I'm okay with your opinion but I really don't know how you can't rate Helenius at all. If you look at those ''top10'' guys there is not too many guys who has better resume compared to Helenius..

    Robert Helenius: Gammer(2009), Bydenko(2009), Brewster(2010), Oloukun(2010), Levin(2010), Peter(2011)

    Thompson: Guinn(2006), T.Ibragimov(2007), Krasniqi(2007), Witherspoon(2009)

    ^ This this the reason why Thompson is NOT in and Helenius IS. Helenius is hot as hell and he's fighting against good opponents. If we look at years 2009-2011 in heavyweights I might say that Helenius's resume is the best of all ( if we are not including champions)

    WBO # 2 is a bit too high for him but he really deservers to be mentioned at TOP-10.

    It seems that Dimitrenko vs Helenius not happen because Dimitrenko defend his EBU belt against Mormeck.

    Helenius vs Thompson or Arreola might be one possibility

    I can promise you that Mormeck will not fight for EU-title. He is waiting for an opportunity to make a last big payday. And I am speaking about worldchampion shot. I'm surprised if he is interested to fight against Dimitrenko for EU-title.

    Helenius vs Dimitrenko - there is still a big possibility that these guys meets in the ring. Helenius is very interested to fight against Dimitrenko and I guess Dimitrenko don't wanna give his belt away without fighting but I am pretty sure that Helenius is not his favourite opponent for mandatory.... So something might happen..

    I could see it happening if Dimitrenko is willing to go to France. Apparently he has no fan base in Germany (his fight with Sosnowski was held in the Universum gym!) so I don't see why he wouldn't go to Paris if Mormeck is willing to share a good portion of the gate.

    If the fight happens in France, then Mormeck might have a shot at a UD. True Mormeck has had terrible endurance at heavy but Dimitrenko's endurance agaisnt Sosnowski wasn't all that.

    Dimitrenko is definitely the fav but I wouldn't count Mormeck out completely--as Mormeck will win the early rounds based on activity and might be able to hurt Dimitrenko to boot.

    That's only because the original fight fell apart when Dimi fainted a fews minutes before the fight and had to cancel the contest.

    There should really be no hurry with him. HELL, he could even take a bit of a step back by facing a guy like Firtha next!

    This. A few clicks back there was talk of him fighting Claus Bertino. Wouldn't be surprised if they looked up his number again.
