27-year-old Robert Helenius (16-0, 11 KOs) accomplished the third battering of his third former world champion on Saturday night, when he stopped Sergei Liakhovich (25-4, 16 KOs) in the ninth round in Erfurt, Germany.
"I realize that at the beginning of the fight it was a little boring. I feel that I could have fought better, but I was a little nervous. - What am I going to do next with my career? I hope that by next year I will be in line to fight for the championship of the world," Henelius said.
Trainer Ulli Wegner said - I think audience saw a very good fight. Robert had to look for opportunities to hit the opponent hard, but later he finally overcame this weakness and he managed to knock the opponent out. It was the third former world champion that he defeated, and remember that this guy has only fought 16 professional fights. It is a pleasant feeling to have such success."
