Heavyweight contender Robert Helenius (10-0, 6 KOs) battered Taras Bidenko (26-4, 12 KOs) and stopped him in three rounds. He cut Bidenko very bad above the eye with a right hand. The doctor stopped the fight at the end of the third. Helenius is on the rise and should be receiving a big push in 2010 if he can beat former champion Lamon Brewster in December.
