Wilder vs Helenius – What have you heard?
Tyson Fury on Wilder’s return: “I think that Helenius is a good fighter.
“I think that he’s No.1-ranked with the WBA or he should be if he’s not.
“I think he did an eliminator with Adam Kownacki and I just think that Wilder is a monster puncher and as soon as he lands on Helenius he’s out.
“I’ve seen Gerald Washington knock Helenius out, and Wilder knocked him out, so… He didn’t do much good with Dillian Whyte, Helenius, couldn’t really hurt him and Wilder punches like five times harder than Whyte so, yeah, KO for sure.”
