EBU challengers?

So who's in line for a crack at the EBU title next?
Fury seems the likely one and i think he would fancy his chances now, not that he lacks confidence anyway). However im wondering if FW could swing chisora a rematch.
Another name that i know Hook will be dying for me to mention is Harrison

, he's got the profile, gave up the belt previously and will probably want the fight now Fury has refused to fight him.
Anyone know of any other europeans in line for a shot? Helenius looks like he's ready for the taking.

Helenius has to face Alexander Dimitrenko next, as that was part of the deal for fighting for the EBU title against Chisora.

Hard one to call, as Helenius could improve after the close call with Chisora.

I wouldn't feel confident picking Robert after last night, but Dimitrenko is slower and easier to hit than Chisora, and he will not be up in Robert's face for 12 rounds.

I have to appologise i was thinking of Sosnowski

not dimitrenko i dont think ive actually ever seen him fight. Sosnowski is nothing special but his movement could get him a points win.

Would Pulev qualify for a shot cos I think he'd have the Fin's number?

Will Helenius's poor performance against Chisora wake him up and improve himself? Or is that all he is capable of?

Sryles make fights, and i think Helenius cleans Fury's clock within 6 rounds . Chisora rolled with the punches and never really got caught with any heavy shots. Dimitrenko would also fail to see the bell against the big Finn, Sosnowski had him in heaps of trouble in there fight. Personally I'd like to see him in with Marius Wach.
