    Solid fight. Helenius deserves it after his recent wins and its a good opponent for Wilder to see where he is at currently.

    I would like for the winner of this fight to face the parker vs Joyce winner or the loser of AJ vs Usyk.

    Poor opponent but one that will be one of Wilders best career wins, that's how poor Wilder record is.

    Helenius has risen a bit and deserves that fight, I just wonder how much both of them have left in the tank and what will the fight be like? I give the edge to Wilder because he surpasses Helenius in terms of power….

    The fight won't last long but it serves both men well. It's a solid comeback fight for Wilder and Helenius has earned a shot at one of the big names in the division.

    It's a serviceable fight as a comeback fight. Wilder was brutally destroyed twice in a row. Helenius is a former sparring partner for him so it's safe with just a bit of danger.

    Why not, Wilder is still exciting and after a few highlight reel knockouts people will think him a world level fighters again, more fighters the better. Wilder vs Joshua would be an amazing matchup stylistically

    Well said.

    No problems with Helenius as the opponent. Yes the style will suit Wilder, but it should also make it an exciting fight whilst it lasts. Wilder's team won't take many risks as they seek to manoever him into another title fight, so this is as good as we could reasonbly jve expected.
