And you bank on Wilder still having a decent chin after those back to back beatdowns against Fury? Wilder by early KO is not unlikely. Have you been reading my posts? He's not hard to hit though... That's where you're wrong. This content is protected If Helenius lands flush which he most certainly can... Wilder will be in trouble and vice versa. It's a don't blink/whomever lands first match. But any serious betting betting man would throw some dough on the underdog, and hedge it on the under.
Helenius is slow as crap. This is a good comeback fight for Wilder, who I think will knock him out early. For Helenius to have any shot, he'll need to come forward and put Wilder on his backfoot. If he doesn't do that, he's gonna end up like Breazeale.
I think you are discounting the speed disadvantage Helenius is at here. Wilder gets a lot of hype for his power but he's also fast for a HW. His boxing skill is zero but Helenius isn't going to outbox him, he'll either knockout Wilder or get knocked out himsef.
Thats a good comeback fight for Wilder, Helenius has been looking pretty good lately so i think it will be a solid test. Im just glad to see Wilder back in the ring, hopefully hes still has alot left in the tank.
Is this happening? Errr it would be a decent enough comeback for Wilder coming off a couple of terrible beatings.. to be honest I expect a very easy confidence builder against a chinless tin can, then a quick turnaround to an opponent like Helenius and assuming he comes through that without any issues.. Maybe Andy Ruiz in some kind of final eliminator.
This depends on what version of Helenius shows up. If it’s the usual version he gets smashed early by Wilder. If it’s the switched on version then he could land the upset.
Yet he survived and KO'd them all, besides Fury, who he came close to beating. If he can survive Fury long enough to hurt him badly, then he can survive Helenius, who wont be as good at evading him as Fury was. Helenius will sit in Wilder firing line. Wilder has decent punch resistance, he's taken beatings and survived plenty of rounds hurt. Helenius was beaten by Washington, he'll get KO'd by Wilder.
