Chisora vs. Helenius
Chisora looking to wear down the giant Helenius tonight
By Sean McDaniel: 6-foot Dereck Chisora (15-1, 9 KO’s) is a decided underdog for tonight’s fight for the vacant EBU heavyweight title against 6’6 1/2″ giant Robert Helenius (16-0, 11 KO’s) at the Hartwall Arena in Helsinki, Finland. However, Chisora is a live underdog and boxing fans really don’t know what to expect from him. He seems to have been totally dismissed due to his loss to Tyson Fury last July.
