    Wlad is the champ, and you think it's ok for Helenius not to want ot fight wlad, but it's not OK for Wlad not to want to fight Helenius

    Where I come from, the champ is the guy everyone is gunning for not the guy who is supposed to be gunning for lower ranked guys

    Helenius is simply not ready for Vitali or Vlad. He has not had enough fights yet.

    It says a lot about a champion's dominance when top-ranked challengers such as Povetkin and Helenius turn down title shots.

    Was Helenius offered title shot or is everyone basing this info for interview where Helenius said he is not ready for Klitchkos yet.

    Saying that and turning down actual title shot is not a same thing
