Helenius looked really good a while back but with all the injuries not so much... And Fury's previously comical clumsiness is visibly reduced. It's too close to call if Robert gets back into shape.
His recent opponent was a complete joke so it's hard to tell if he's still rusty or just didn't try much.
You do know Helenius got battered from pillar to post by Chisora, the guy who Fury shut out and stopped when they last met.
Easy, easy decision for Fury.

If I had been asked this question a couple years back, I would have said that for a short period there, Helenius was the only legitimate threat left to Klitschko.
That was before the Chisora exposure. That was before the claim of injury and the career stallage.
Now I dunno what happened against Chisora or whether he could waste Dereck any other day or not but that crap can't be denied.
Helenius is a far more brutal puncher than Fury, that's definite, but if Robert was any better than him technically beforehand, he wouldn't be now!
Fury has really started to come into his own now.
It's a tough call, I give Helenius a very good punchers chance against Fury and I do mean very high, because he has the range too unlike Fury has ever faced, AND the power. Helenius looks like he could take a punch too, the guy is a Viking!
But I think it will be Fury that outboxes him and after several rounds if Helenius hasn't caught him with anything significant, he will be weakened by the Fury peppering and it will be all Fury.
Fury UD Helenius (30-40% punchers chance Helenius)
