    Helenius hasn't been the same since injuring his right arm and shoulder in the Chisora fight. The power he had before then isn't there any more.

    Chisora vs AJ would be a great match-up. Here's hoping it happens.

      Potentially gets a shot at the Joshua sweepstakes. Sky PPV, all the bells and whistles. He'll surely make more for this fight (if it happens) than Helenius
      Yeah, you're right there mate. And to be honest i'd much rather see Chisora Vs Joshua :ANYWORD:

      It shouldn't be a hard fight to make, you wouldn't of thought.

        I thought Chisora was on record as saying he doesn't want the AJ fight.
        It was during the build up of Joshua Whyte.

          Im hoping that was negotiation tactics.

          "Meh, I dont care about this fight anyway. Pay me more and maybe I'll reconsider" type deal.

          Sauerland seems clear that Chis vs Josh could happen for the belt. The situation has changed too. Chisora was in line to fight for Helenius for the Euro belt, which is a good option for DC, thats maybe off the cards, and Josh is next in line, the AJ fight makes a lot more sense than before

          I'd be surprised if he turned down this opportunity

            i'm not sure that joshua-chisora is competitive at this stage but i can see that it's an obvious fight to make. i've been expecting it for a while

              Del boy is a tough nights work for most HW's. I don't think Hearn will be that keen on putting AJ in with him right now.

                  Its pretty much no lose for Hearn.

                  Chisora is a decent name in the UK still, he might give Joshua a good test, might get blasted out. Either outcome isnt that bad. Chis also isnt powerful so not much chance of a KO.

                  Plus its for a belt

                    I know, right?

                    At one point I thought he was a no 3 behind Vladimir and Vitali, but then he lost to Chisora and never been the same ever since, over 4 years and counting... ****in shame.

                      Most likely. I can't see Chisora turning down that type of cash really. I'm guessing he needs it the amount he is fighting at the minute.

                      Del boy is the perfect opponent for Joshua at this stage. Hoping it get's made.
