Heavyweight Robert "the Nordic Nightmare" Helenius (26-2) will take on Yury Bykhautsou (10-16-3) on August 11 in Savonlinna (Finland) reports boxing.fi. This is a rematch and in the first fight Helenius broke his right hand and put on an overall flat performance.

Helenius vows to do better this time against an opponent who is a tough fighter but the type a contender wannabe needs to get past.

Helenius vs Bykhautsou goes ahead on a pro-am show topped by Edis Tatli´s defence of the EBU lightweight title against Marvin Petit.

Surely Helenius won't have any problems this time.

I agree.

Wonder how Helenius would have done if he tried a bit more. Did he injure his hand?

This is a nothing fight, why rematch some journeyman he has already beaten, albeit in disappointing fashion?

Helenius’ last win of note was years ago, he is treading water...
