Will Lyakhovich have any chance of defeating Helenius this Saturday?

[The Hammer]

Does Sergei Lyakhovich have any chance of winning this Saturday?


- Lyakhovich hasn't fought since May 2010, and has had long periods of inactivity between fights since 2005

- Lyakhovich is not as tall and has a shorter reach

- Lyakhovich is a strong puncher, but he doesn't have the one-punch KO power of Helenius

- the fight will be on a Sauerland (promoter of Helenius) card

robert is going to KO him early...

Can't rate his chances until the weigh in.

He shows up in good shape he has a legit chance. He shows up fat with saggy b*tch **** like he did vs Valuev and he stands little chance.

If he's in his best shape (Brewster fight) he has a slim chance of winning but if he's not, he has no chance at all.

I wouldn't count out a former titlist but on paper the match-up seems heavily in Helenius's favour. We can only hope that Lyakhovich puts up a good effort and makes it worthwhile.

Helenius will violently KO Sergei. Id like to see him fight Arreola or the loser of Povetkin/Chagaev.

[Grinderman]

We're gonna see what Liakhovich has left -- he's tough and will make Helenius work for it at any rate. So I'd say slim chance.

[Expertise]

Are they gonna show the fight on ARD? anyone know?

[Tiozzo]

I'd say no

he's shot
