    50/50 fight imo, but likely to be a snoozer

      I can't believe anyone would voluntarily go watch Hugie or Michael Hunter. Both are low skilled and poor to watch in the ring.

        Good matchup. Hard to pick a winner. Winner gets Dubois/Bryan winner. Hopefully that Regular belt disappears so in my mind Fury/Hunter is an eliminator not a final. The winners of these 2 fights should then be in a WBA final eliminator. I thought the Regular belt was going the way of the dodo?

          Helenius can throw some hard leather but Wilder, for all his flaws, has shown to be hard to keep on the canvas. He's been dropped multiple times by Fury and was hurt by Ortiz but he's gotten off the canvas and/or recovered every time but once.

          I agree about the result of these two fight, I see Helenius getting blitzed fairly quickly and it will probably be as brutal as the Breazeale fight.

            Hughie has a solid chin and pillows for fists. I imagine there will be lots of rounds with little sustained action. This has draw, split or majority decision all over it. I will still watch it however.

              Hunter more skilled and faster Hughie way bigger. I say hunter by decision.

                Wilder has actually showed to be rattled very easy when taking solid shots even Breazeale rattled him but didn’t follow up and he didn’t hit Wilder clean that’s just a fact even Wilder said so .

                Wilder has limited fights with actual punchers , when Fury sat down on shots we saw the results . Helenius is a very direct hard puncher and I believe Wilder will get knocked out if he lands clean but like I said Wilder has most advantages to avoid it and will most likely do a Breazeale on him ,my guess is round 4 if they fought .

                Posters mAke crazy claims about chins but Wilder nearly knocked out by Molina landing solid ,Breazeale landed clean on A.J several times to no effect etc….posters just create their own reality on here we e seen Wilder stunned by Jabs from Fury and Washington we know he got lucky in a few fights with the bell saving him ,it’s ridiculous bringing up Joshua abilities to take a punch when he’s fought the majority of them .

                  Hughie Fury is a club fighter and will never ever be anything more.

                    The irony of your comment is Hunter was the one to get the home-town gift last time out against Forrest. Hunter was dominated and didn't come close to drawing the fight.

                      I have no idea where Hughie gets the idea that he's a top 3 fighter in the division.

                      I'd love to know who he has as the top two though and who he thinks he's better than.
