There should be a 4 man tournament between charr, helenius, dubois and Bryan to clear up this mess and get a real wba mandatory

dubois would wipe them out with ease.

Helenius is no pushover he would give him a good fight. Still favor DDD tho

One of the biggest problems with the HW division, and one of the reasons Joshua gets a lot of stick for fighting old men who happen to be mandatories, is that THERE’S A ****LOAD OF OLD MEN AS MANDATORIES!

These MFs hang around the division like a bad smell. Let’s be blunt: Helenius isn’t particularly good and neither are any of the guys whose names are in contention.

Their promoters must have some serious pull with boxing orgs to keep the likes of Helenius, Pulev, Stiverne,Takam, et al. from recent years either directly involved in, or floating around the discussion, for title shots.

All qualities of a weak division... People get bold. Nobody is that good, bottom line.

He isn't a push over but he gets winded by the second round.

After Fury and Usyk, the drop off is dramatic.

We hoping, but I know for sure it wont happen. Assuming AJ somehow gets the belts back hes probably gonna fight Fury. Unless fury gets covid again or goes on a bender one of them ones. cant trust Feary

Thats already gonna be late 2022 or early 2023. No mandatory in sight, the HW division is being held hostage at the moment! GIVE WILDER HIS BELT HE KNOCKED FURY OUT TWICE ALREADY. Foookin 50second 10counts. **** this sport

Helenius is pushing 40 so he can't afford to wait for a long time. I can see that the winner of a Usyk-AJ rematch might like to fight Helenius BUT if Fury snaps his fingers they will come & Robert willl be out in the cold. Although, being Swedish, I guess he's used to the cold. He definitely needs to be thinking about other possible big-money fights. Deontay might be one. It would be a true 'crossroads' fight with the loser nowhere to go but retirement & the winner knocking on the door of the winner of Usyk-AJ-Fury.

Helenius is a decent fighter. A #10-15 rank in any era. Tall , decent boxing skills with some pop in both hands. But his wins over Kownacki basically exposed Kownacki for the hyped up fraud that he was. I mean, geesh, did he avoid one single shot? Everything Helenius thew landed flush on that fat slobs face . In saying that, I think Helenius could give Usyk some trouble because of the size, and underrated power. Usyk will have trouble with most top heavyweights. Don't let the AJ fight fool you. Usyk's best bet is to make some big cash on the rematch and if he wins, fight Fury, then get the hell home. Then retire. He's not beating Fury.
