RE: Heavyweight Division - bart - 03-10-2020 For the $$ he got Helenius should sack who ever he is with. Hopefully he gets some decent coin next time out RE: Heavyweight Division - Beefstew - 03-11-2020 (03-10-2020, 07:45 PM)diehard Wrote: Thanks AF, I read it wrong. He was Chisora's promoter when Helenius fought Chisora. Anyway, do you know who Helenius' promoter is now? Can't find it anywhere... Looking through his last 10 or so fights its all different promotions, id assume hes not signed to a promoter, good place to be after his latest win. RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 03-11-2020 Ironically, he may only need an agent and not a promoter, as he won the eliminator against Kownacki. He could plug into any number of big name promoters like Hearn or Haymon (or Mr Higgins???) and fight someone in their stable as he's hot property now. What would I do? I'd take a rest, fight a stay busy fight, and see how it plays out with the AJ fights. Enter Hearn. After taking crap money, he could have a big pay day after AJ disposes of Pulev and Usyk. Enter Fa. Helenius needs to stay busy until he gets a big payday, and Fa could just pull the upset. RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 03-12-2020 Usyk-Chisora set for May 23 in London Pound-for-pound star Oleksandr Usyk (17-0, 13 KOs) will face Derek Chisora (32-9, 23 KOs) in a heavyweight clash at The O2 in London on May 23, live on Sky Sports Box Office in the UK and DAZN in the US. “As a cruiserweight, I reached the highest heights as undisputed champion and now I am following the same path as a heavyweight,” said Usyk. “I expect a real test in Chisora – he is strong, tough and resilient. I recall being an amateur and watching his fight with Vitali Klitschko. It seemed so big and far away. Now I am myself taking a fight against Chisora. I am working hard in my training camp to show a spectacular performance on May 23rd.” “WAR is coming,” said Chisora. “Usyk reckons he can step up and survive with the big boys. He may be the undisputed cruiserweight champion of the world but on May 23rd he will find out what it feels like to be hit by a real heavyweight. He is coming to my backyard, I’m going to remind him exactly why he hid in the cruiserweight division and also get revenge for my boy, Tony Bellew. This will be WAR.” RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 03-12-2020 https://www.boxing247.com/boxing-news/chisora-usyk-is-a-dancer-hes-going-to-dance/146574 RE: Heavyweight Division - gothenaki - 03-12-2020 (03-12-2020, 03:35 PM)diehard Wrote: https://www.boxing247.com/boxing-news/chisora-usyk-is-a-dancer-hes-going-to-dance/146574 I like Chisora, He's grown up a bit, and understands where he belongs. Usyk is a different level. He will have trouble with 6"9 Fury- who wouldn't? The beat-down Fury gave to Chisora and Hammer (both shorter guys) should have let people know before he proved it against Klistchko and Wilder. They quit. Possibly a motivated Joshua could beat Usyk. Less likely Wilder - his reaction times are too good. Fury can dodge them, so Usyk will find it easy. Strangely, I think a motivated Ruiz could give him problems, as someone with hand-speed. But Chisora, Whyte and Parker are all easy meat for someone with such incredible skill and hand-speed. Not to mention a great chin. That's not to say that I don't want any of those guys to beat Usyk. I just think he's that good. I am feel - I am very feel. RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 03-13-2020 Don't share your love of Usyk. A great fighter at cruiser, a good fighter at heavy. He was average against Witherspoon, who is a journeyman. I do think he'll beat Chisora, and I do think he'd be too fast for Ruiz. But the bigger guys like AJ, Wilder, Fury would KO him. Even Parker would beat him. He's good, but not that good. I don't rate Fury as highly as you do. I think AJ would KO him. Yes, Fury gives fighters trouble. Coming forward against Wilder was Wilder's undoing. Parker also gets beat up against Fury, as Fury is too big and skillful. It's an exciting time in the heavyweight division.
