He boxed in Canada as an amateur under the name Frankie Rill. He won a national junior title but didn't do much as a senior--I think he best achievement was making it to the national team box-offs and he was dominated there by James Toney's next opponent, Eric Martel (http://boxrec.com/boxer/473462).

From what I've seen, If Helenius doesn't beat him easily it's a bad sign for the Nordic Nightmare.

Nice answer. Good to see the occasional real boxing fan on this site :TU:

If he wins looks like Hearn is keen to make Joshua-Helenius for March.
Big step up for Joshua against someone who can bang.
I expect Helenius to come this shame it's not Teper though.

Believe me, Joshua has nothing to fear from the plodding Helenius.

I won't be surprised if Rill beats Helenius on Saturday, although I favor Helenius to win that one.

Roberts got some of the heaviest hands in boxing.

If Helenius doesn't beat Rill I'll be astounded. Rill fought our own Paul Butlin and looked horrendous.
