Sam Peter vs Robert Helenius 4-2-2011

Helenius has been presented by some people as possibly the next big thing, but i don't see something special about him. If Sam Peter comes in at around 240 pounds and motivated he wins this one by KO.

After having looked at a few clips of Helenius I think I've got him pegged. He's extremely upright, he looks a bit soft around the middle, he's robotic, he's got a good jab, solid power, loves to throw a sweeping right hook to the body (that'll haunt him), he's got a good uppercut as well, and although he punches with power he seems to arm punch a little....the jab and occasionally the right cross seem to have snap on them but other than that he's pushing his punches which tells me if he gets someone that can apply constat pressure and either has good defense or a good chin he's going to gas out and lose.

The more I've seen of Helenius the more I think Sam Peter can take him, but Sam is going to have to be in shape and he's going to have to want to win, Helenius won't just lie down for him.

There is a chance if Peter unloads a left hook at the right time that we'll see a Jeremy Williams-esque KO in Sam Peter's favor.

Who necks?

Who necks to kick his ass? I think Helenius.

Have you seen Helenius or do you think he'll win just because you think Sam Peter is washed up?

Sam Peter COULD very well be washed up but I think even if he is he's in better shape than Brewster was when he fought Helenius and it will be a hard fight for him.

Helenius really doesn't impress me at all having seen him on youtube...his punches aren't crisp, his defense seems lackluster.....it looks like everyone he fights is there for a paycheck and not to compete.
