Povetkin vs. Chagaev - Helenius vs. Liakhovich fight thread on Epix

[Jody Lane]

Erics44 is pretty hype about these heavyweight fights. I see Chagaev v. Povetkin as a good stepping stone fight for the winner. Helenius is a bit overrated, but I see him getting by Liakhovitch

I am not sure why people think Helenius is overrated. He has had only 15 fights. I'd say he is a good prospect at this point but that's about it.

You are correct. I didn't mean to be too negative on him. I see him as a decent big guy and that's about it, but I'm wrong to say he is overrated at this stage.

Hey that's ok. I have seen similar comments at another site. Let's see what he does in the next year or so. I hope they keep him busy and hungry and progress him at a good steady pace.

Truthfully, for the amount of publicity he gets, I would say Seth Mitchell is being as overrated as Helenius and Helenius has been in tougher than Mitchell.

Povetkin/ Chagaev is a good match-up & the winner puts himself in a good position for bigger fights.

Helenius should get by Liakhovich
