Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder Destroys Robert Helenius With Vicious Knockout in One

Tyson Fury may be the best, but if you are American, you should be very proud of Wilder. And you don’t get more American than Wilder.

I told you guys before the fight - this was an easy fight for Wilder. Everyone was trying to hype it up into something it wasn't. Wilder should never be fighting anyone outside the top-10. This result has got to give Wilder the confidence to make the big fights now

There is no top 10. Only 3-4 guys that should be fighting each other. 5 including Wallin

the moment helenius was 'fake fighting' without any intent, i said it was already an in house pbc fix.


then the most slightest of touches and he's into the astral plane with the faeries and gremlins.

fking fake boxing strikes again.

This is why you shouldn’t do drugs, kids.


Helenius came forward with his head in perfect spot for countering, slowly and obviously. Wilder hit him rushing in and landed a short quick right at 250lbs coming in towards the fist. Wilder has insane power and Helenius has a weak chin. Helenius also at 38 has lost his reflexes. He never saw it coming and the punch you don’t see is the one that’ll hurt you.

No need for tinfoil and sunglasses. A guy 12 years past his prime got KO’d. It’s the simplest and therefore most likely explanation. Google Occam’s Razor for reference.

Per Wilder “it was a GREAT fight”…still dilusional and as gullible as ever! Knocking out this stiff who actually was previously ko’d by soft hitting Duhaupas and novice Washington was a total waste of time. Great Pbc ppv main event mismatch as the norm last few years.

Oh yea, Haymon never told Wilder that Helenius took the dive $$.. if you think that KO was legitimate, you probably believe in the tooth fairy..

Anyone who understands how a punch works knows this was a clear dive. He didn't turn his body or get any leverage. A push punch like he was nailing a picture on the wall. It was a dive.

Wilder is back! Usyk is next

All the people claiming it was dive or that the punch wasn’t that much should line up in a row and take that same punch. If you’re all standing in the end then I’ll gladly admit that you were right.

If you were to take a clip of a heavyweight fight during someone like Liston's era and just watch the general skill set of individuals, then watch Helenius...any Helanius fight, one could be forgiven for thinking it strange that someone so limited was a professional. But that is hardly because this was a dive lol. Kudos to Wilder coming in properly trained, light! Helenius looked like his typical self, a bit slower perhaps... This is the average skill level of boxing's evolved heavyweights lol.

power is the last to go. unless you have elite defense you arent beating wilder. if you have poor defense then you get sparked clean out like this.

Wilder will be there a while if he can come in light like he did tonight.

[Rosco3387]

That short right reminded me of Foreman. Not many boxers can generate such power without winding up.

Scary thing is Wilder seems to have both types of power: heavy hands and speed. Fast feet also. And... for all the size queens? Wilder is at his best, an average sized heavyweight.
