The knockout was BRUUUUUUUUUUUUUTAL. Holm was out cold, bent over the ropes. She was OK though – totally coherent at post-fight presser.

Max Kellerman of HBO thinks Helenius may be the guy who could eventually dethrone Vitali.
And Max just may be right, esp. if Vitali continues fighting for longer.
I like Helenius over Chisora tonight in Helsinki.
