I agree it would make more sense for Helenius to fight a final eliminator against someone like Boytsov or Pianeta.
But Helenius was WBO #1 before his injury, and his last opponent Sherman Williams was ranked by the WBO (10 if I remember correctly).
The last WBO heavyweight final eliminator was July 4, 2009 between Alexander Dimitrenko and Eddie Chambers, so Chambers became mandatory 3 1/2 years ago. They haven't had an eliminator since then.
