Wilder didnt have any problem putting on the big arms, or the big chest. Why can't he do his legs like that? Not too much, but carry the weight easier.Comment

It's hard to gain leg mass and do boxing training. Running, skipping rope and boxing shrink your legs.
This is probably closer to Wilder's natural size but I don't think his tweener build will be much of a factor as Helenius has never fought the style that Fury used to rough up stop Wilder. If Wilder isn't done from 2 brutal beatings then he should win this cherry pick.Comment

Not really a cherry pick as Helenius won an eliminator in the 2nd Kownacki fight & is now in WBC top 4. It is the other semi final eliminator after Ruiz beat Ortiz. Helenius could have fought in a WBA eliminator but declined as he is getting a 7 digit paycheck fighting Wilder. Helenius had options. This wasn’t some fight out of nowhere. He was the Groups ranked guy fighting the Home ranked. Ruiz Forum beat Ortiz #3…

I thought Helenius had a title shot when he won the first WBA eliminator against Kownacki ? Maybe it was for the regular title shot, these eliminators are rather confusing and I'm not a casual fan. I could so how casuals get snowed over by promoters when this guy is a secondary paper champion and the fans get fooled by that.Not really a cherry pick as Helenius won an eliminator in the 2nd Kownacki fight & is now in WBC top 4.

He was ordered to actually fight Hughie as he is WBAGold champion (Whatever that means) but declined because he obviously caught wind he would get the Wilder fight so Hunter was chosen to replace him. The first Kownacki fight was WBA eliminator & the 2nd was too but not sure if it was another WBA or WBC. Regardless Kownacki was highly ranked in both. Helenius took his spot in both bodies. The PPV Wilder fight is life changing money. I doubt he will care if he loses because it is a nice retirement check. If he scores the upset it mesns more $$$$. Wilder Breazeales him in my opinion…
