He's pretty good from mid range, but he's not quick enough on his feet to avoid anyone faster than a statue from getting up on him, and at that stage, he's got nothing, ZERO You can't be "world class" with such a glaring, massive hole in your game. It's not like Wlad, where it's next to impossile to get inside, 40 year old Sherman Williams even managed it when he could be bothered trying Helenius man... not good Oh, and I like you too, i'd just rather disucuss something else as we have been through this soooooooo many times, and I feel like we could just go on forever with neither ever agreeing on anyhthing related to Fury (watch Fury go and lose to tony grano after all the effort i put into defending him LOL) |

the main thing with Helenius was that he got exposed.
and not in the way Fury got exposed by mcdermott in a fight that was competetive when he was a 20 year old novice who was out of shape. no, he got exposed as a 27 year old, experianced, in his prime, in shape contender. By Chisora Whos domestic level Schooled Dominated And the "injured" excuse doesn't work anymore because when Williams applied some of the same sort of pressure, Helenius wilted again and almost got knocked out And he certainly wont be improving at his age |

In terms of flaws & weaknesses... that's the only thing Fury beats Helenius in. If Helenius' inside game was so poor then Chisora would've won and he wouldn't have beaten the sort of fighters he already has. Even still, a simple jab & grab technique is not hard to learn. Helenius was out of the ring for nearly a year after having a big surgery on his shoulder, why does the Williams fight matter. It's good to see him [Fury] dedicate more of his time to boxing and get in shape. That will definitely help him in the long run. He's an entertaining fighter who'll put on some great fights but ultimately fail at the final hurdle. There is no shame in being a European champion or world title contender. |

Compared to Fury, Helenius is a highly skilled, world class operator.
For one he actually has proper punch technique, uses movement and has good boxing IQ. Devastating power with good footwork and hand speed. Chin isn't granite but it's still solid. Helenius doesn't respond well to pressure but he has the tools and ability to be able to. Jab & grab isn't something that needs to be ingrained early on when you start boxing but a basic defence is. Fury's win over Chisora doesn't have any relevance with Helenius-Chisora. Chisora is better than domestic and proved against Vitali how good that version of him is. Even in the controversial victory over Chisora, Helenius has never looked as vulnerable as Fury has at times. |
