Hope it doesn't end up being someone of lesser quality than those two. Any of the above could arguably be his best opponent to date, if you take into account where Peter and Lyak where at when he fought them. Don't know where exactly Johnson is at these days, but imo he is the likelier of the two to accept a fight of this magnitude on rather short notice.
i hope kevin johnson, he would decision helenius. helenius is just big with big power. he has not the best boxing skills, terrible footwork, valuev like slow, and lazy with bad stamina. i would love to see chambers school him
I heard he was fighting you Anut for riding his cook too hard. Bring that hot or not score of yours down a couple of whole numbers.
Helenius - Chagaev would be good, if Chagaev has something left he will give Helenius a boxing lesson but if he doesnt then Helenius will stop him late on with the scorecards being close like in the Liakhovic fight. Plus Chagaev will be good experience and another good name and ex champion on Helenius's resume. I also wouldn't mind seeing Helenius K'O Dimitrenko after the Sprott robbery.
I'd like to see Helenius vs any of these guys: 1. Chris Arreola 2. Tony Thompson 3. Dimitrenko 4. Fury
who cares? those big mutants like helenius, dimitrenko are rodiculously boring to watch... Id rather see Arreola fight Povetkin or something... but It wont happen, because the HW division is garbage. And you know it is garbage because a gui like Dimitrenko is a legitimate contender...
I want to see Robbe fighting guys who are NOT going to be his title challengers when he unifies and becomes undisputed. That eliminates guys like Chisora, Fury, Mitchell, Glaskov, Wach, Ustinov etc. So for this fight, KJ, Thomspon, and Chagaev would be great for him. I've read posts that KJ would beat him, but what leads anyone to think that. Yes, KJ has decent D and decent mobility, but that's really where his world class ability ends. His power is lacking to keep Robbe off him, and IMO, Robbe's lull for the first few rounds, fighting at a SLOW or snails pace is really a tactical decision, knowing that if he can get his opponent into this rhythm that he'll catch them with something big along the way, and eventually get to them, as he has in EVERY big fight he's fought. KJ will be NO different. Thomspon would be the toughest fight for him, but still winnable in BIG fashion. Although I doubt Thompson, @40 y/o is reasonably considering losing his mandate with Wladimir for a clash with Helenius. Chagaev would be best, as it would maintain his father's ambitions for him of beating and KOing 6 former world titlists en route to his title challenge. This is an excellent gameplan as even if these guys are slightly past it, they were still once proud champs, and none of them went out w/o a fight.:good
I'm fairly sure that even Dimitrenko knows his days are numbered. Unless he meets Victor Conte, finds a gym he can secretly bulk up in, and come out stronger, able to keep his opponents from walking through his punches, he is about to be at the end of a brutal KO loss to the first "in it to win it" fighter.
