Did Helenius fight Duhaupas tonight?

[actjac]

The window in a career is narrow . . . his was a few years ago. This was a decisive knockout loss.

Against a guy that wasn't previously in the Top 20

Wasn't Helenius one of the guys that Wilder was ducking?

All of you that said that....stand up so you can be slapped properly.

I wonder what's next for Duhaupas.

AJ-Martin winner? Pulev-Chisora winner?

Adamek is very old, so if he loses (which he hasn't yet) I wouldn't be surprised, he wasn't even a real heavyweight, he just became one at some point in his carreer.
But Helenius has no excuse left, he simply isn't good enough for the top, he already showed signs of weakness in his previous "sparring" matches.

Stupid for people to have claimed that with the way Helenius has looked over the past 5 years. He should already have a 118-110/117-111 type loss to Chisora on his record as well.

Helenius was injured for the past few years, so saying he was ducked made no sense.
You could better say Helenius was ducking Wilder, simply because he was ducking everybody.
And about the Chisora fight, it was close, perhaps some people can even say Chisora won, but definetly not with 18-10 or anything like that.

Helenius didn't deserve more than 3 rounds against Chisora.

AJ-Martin winner? Pulev-Chisora winner?

Not a chance for AJ/Martin. Fury or Wlad, if they ever fight and the winner of Wilder vs Povetkin will have that. Duhaupas should fight Stiverne, Haye, or someone like Perez or... if he really wants to see where he is at, Ortiz. (I think Ortiz is a top five guy.) Pulev/Chisora winner is believable too.

..thanks for an update, guys...feel sorry for Helenius...about 3-4 years ago I thought he had potential to be a belt holder ...

I think he had a bad shoulder injury in his right shoulder that led to his overall career decline...

blah, blah , he was a world beater until then.

Overrated, chisora was robbed in the fight against him and he's below world class level.

No.

AJ-Martin winner? Pulev-Chisora winner?

Dillian Whyte, Malik Scott or Pulev Chisora indeed, not AJ Martin, or well, perhaps the loser of them, the winner should focus on the winner of Takam/Parker, or unify the belts.

The Nordic Nightmare should have pretended Duhaupas's head was a soccerball.

After that terrible performance against Chisiora I never thought Helenius would go all the way to the top, even though I have to admit that after his impressive streak against former world champions I bought into the hype. I mean credit where credit is due, flatfoot Sam Peter never went down easy, Brewster ended up blind in one eye and Liakhovic served as a punching bag for him. He did look like an exiting new contender who brought the size to the table to challenge the Klitschkos.
After the Chisiora fight he never looked the same and I don't really see him rebound from this KO loss.

The combination of the Chisora fight, a very bad shoulder injury and a major promotional dispute with the Sauerlands really put the brakes on.

He was a decent heavy, big lad with a decent back hand. Chisora swarmed him though and I thought he won the fight pretty clearly. Along with Abril vs Rios it's one of the worst decisions I've seen in recent times

Helenius losing isn't a big surprise to me given how he's looked over the last 5 years, but I wasn't expecting him to go down like that against someone who isn't a noted puncher. Those right hands were hurting Robert badly and turning his legs to jelly.
