Anyone give Helenius a chance on Saturday?

[brettWall]

He had enough time to train and do his homework. It would be ****** of him to make the wrong moves and hang his chin in the air for Wilder to break.

To me it's a matter of who gets to the other guy's chin first. These are heavies not lighties. You can't always talk about power without talking defense.

Very Possible! It is the heavyweight Division, lets see how Wilder looks after getting Battered a bit by Fury

What will the Punch Resistance look like, also want to see some improvements from a CONDITION and Technical Standpoint. Always a nice energetic Crowd at Barclays so I'm sure it will be electric for him

The only guy who picked Helenius to upset Kownacki is here. Sup.

The game plan is going to have to be to press Wilder hard and land early. However, Helenius’ natural style and instinct will too often have him standing at the perfect range for a Wilder right. Expect a firefight.

Wilder is overrated and he is worn down now on top of that. It’s just a matter of how worn down.

If you’re a betting man then pick Helenius by early stoppage. If you’re a realist then pick Wilder by KO in round 5 or 6.

Helenius cannot withstand Wilder’s power
So no , no chance

You can never underestimate how much of a tole the damage taken in beatings like that may take but I'd be surprised if he lasted 4 rounds being kind let alone won.

Helenius is a big stiff idiot as Fury would say. Static, no mobility, totally upright with zero head movement and only really capable of beating shorter fighters that just repeatably walk straight forward with no head movement themselves into his jab.

Static, zero head movement, he doesn't even have a guard. Just a showcase fight.
The only two questions I feel is how many rounds until that right hand detonates and how badly will he get planked.

[The D3vil]

oh yeah, he stands a chance.

If Wilder is mentally fxcked after fighting Fury 3x and having his aura of invincibility destroyed

It's unlikely, but possible.

[Mammoth]

Not really.......

[TheIronMike]

I'm staking my $$$ on the over, so I need Helenius to make it past round 4.

I am calling a close fight or upset. Helenius looks like his best self of late and has been fighting often. Wilder been inactive and took a career ending beating his last fight.

surprised team wilder didn't take a softer touch.

You can’t take a more softer touch while insulting others . Wilder needs a big win to at least talk about ,imagine anyone below a Helenius ? Helenius is ranked but he’s defensively irresponsible as can be and they know him from sparring . One thing Wilder can say with a win is he defeated a big power puncher which is rare .

Wilder fans who actually watch this which will most likely be a few on here better be aware Wilders chin has nit taking real power punchers consist, Helenius will knock him out if he’s able to land enough . Is that worth the price ? I guess if you have that much vested interest in an unlikely upset or afraid Helenius lands that clean shot but I’ll hold my money here .

Sorry but Helenius is a bum plain n simple
