Former world heavyweight champion American Deontay Wilder (42-2-1, 41 KOs) shared his thoughts on the upcoming fight against Finnish Nordic Nightmare Robert Helenius (31-3, 19 KOs), which will take place on October 15 in Brooklyn (USA) ).
Note that Wilder and Helenius have sparred many times in the past and know each other very well.
“Robert was at my house, we have a great relationship with him and his team, so this story is not about enemies or hostility,” Wilder said. – It will be a battle of two gentlemen for the victory and the first line of the rating (WBC), for the family and much more. And the smartest and fastest of us will win. Well, the one who hits harder.
“Helenius is a great fighter. Very tall. Sometimes he can be patient. And he has a heart of gold. Now Robert has a cool winning streak and he must be in a very good mood, very confident in himself,” Deontay emphasized. – He won’t give up. He has a military background, he knows how to fight. So it won’t be easy. We know each other well, we know each other’s capabilities, and for each of us it will be an interesting fight.”
“I will enter the ring with something new. With something that he had never seen me before, promises the American. “Maybe he thinks the same way. Be that as it may, I am expecting a big challenge. Fans will definitely not regret the money spent.”
And here is what Helenius says about the upcoming fight.
