Robert Helenius

In February, the WBA appointed Robert Helenius (31-3, 20 KOs) and Hughie Fury (26-3, 15 KOs) by the participants in the qualifying match for the title of world heavyweight champion. However, the Finn did not accept the WBA invitation and was replaced by Michael Hunter.

Two wins over Adam Kownacki might lead Robert Helenius (31-3, 20 KOs) to a world heavyweight title fight. Such a decision could soon be made by the WBA management, elevating the Finnish giant to mandatory challenger status.

Robert Helenius (31-3, 19 KOs) hopes to challenge for the WBA world heavyweight title soon and could be designated by the association as an official title challenger. The 37-year-old boxer beat Adam Kownacki for the second time on Saturday.

"I've been boxing for twenty years, but on Saturday you will see my best version," promised Robert Helenius (30-3, 19 KOs). "For me, this fight is a question of 'to be or not to be,'" Adam Kownacki (20-1, 15 KOs) said for his part ahead of his upcoming rematch with the Finn.

Adam Kownacki (20-1, 15 KOs) is the clear favorite with bookmakers ahead of Saturday's rematch with Robert Helenius (30-3, 19 KOs). The bout will be one of the highlights of the undercard at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
