I agree except I believe he will surely stop helenius. Peter has some boxing ability. he doesnt always use it and doesnt get credit for it, but if you watch him versus Toney you see it. I suspect he doesnt have much trouble with helenius. People dont give him enough credit because he lost to both brothers, but they are in another league altogether than helenius. Peter TKO 5.
No that's not what i'm saying at all lol. I'm saying if peter has anything left he should beat an up and comer like helenius. I never once said helenius was shite, they're your words not mine. I don't know why you're hating on helenius like this. Helenius is an unknown quantity. A victory over peter would be enough to put him in the top ten of the world.
Excited about this fight. Helenius has been growing on me. If he manages to stop Peter with his trademark short, accurate hooks I'll officially jump on the bandwagon.
I'm sick of hearing garbage from newbie fans telling us Peter is done because he lost 3 fights (2 of them badly) to two of the best ever heavyweights the sport has ever seen, he's 30 for ****s sake! Show some respect. Both fighters are showing tremendous balls here and deserve respect for taking part in what should be a great fight. Prediction? It's to close to say for me at this stage, I really need to see the weigh in before making my mind up, this is a proper 50/50 fight.
You will also see them type things such as Peter has no power. When in fact he is a devastating puncher. He is still young. I honestly have only seen you tube and a couple interviews from Helenius. based on what I have seen. Peter shouldnt have much trouble with him. However, people have said Helenius has been improving so we will see. It is a pretty exciting fight for sure and should be fan friendly.
I'm going with a Helenius late tko. I think both Klitschko fights, have really damaged his punch resistance...
Helenius wins over Attila Levin, Gregory Tony, Lamon Brewster and Taras Bydenko are great considering he has only fought 14 times, yes they are all c level opponents but he managed to knock those all out pretty easily, he seems well able to step it up. His KO % looks worse than it should be, but as he said himself just a few days ago when he appeared on the ropes he wasn't taking the sport seriously when he started and was just doing it for fun basically. Still only the best have had a record as good as him only after 14 fights.
Helenius mid roudn stoppage, echoing both the Helenius-Brewster fight and the Vitali-Peter Fight. Somewhere rounds six-eight.
He also had hand problems early on. Don't know why he didn't say so, maybe he doesn't want to publicize it.
Who can blame you? This is probably the most competitive heavyweight fight that's been made! I do expect peter to have too much for helenius but that's only because I don't know a lot about rob! Looking forward to it. I wanna see the winner keep the momentum going with a fight against pov or chambers!
I think the matchmaking also shows that Sauerland has all but written off Povetkin and Helenius is their new #1 at HW. Which is ironic after the millions they invested into the highly hyped Povetkin.
