Could be poor tickets but who knows

I wouldn't be surprised if the tickets weren't selling. If there's no injuries, what else could it be?

Helenius can't sell tickets at home no more?

Damn that dude is a award winning boxing documentary waiting to happen. I remember when he seemed destined to at least fight for the title if not win it. I remember pre-Tyson Fury thinking he was the only guy who could give Klitschko a legit challenge in the dead HW division. F#cked up how things go sometimes.

You could be right but man that is a good HW fight with title implications. Helenius had an ongoing promotional issue with Sauerland & ended up still working with them so I figured this would do well somewhere in Europe. Especially in Finland or whereever he is from.
