Rogan To Fight For Euro Strap!

Martin Rogan has been handed the chance to re-gatecrash heavyweight boxing’s big time after securing a fight with the EU, WBA and WBO inter-continental champion Robert Helenius.

The EBU have made the former Commonwealth champion mandatory challenger for the world number two and the European title fight looks set to take place in Germany in the Summer. Former Prizefighter winner Rogan, who is two fights into a comeback from a serious neck injury, is excited about a return to championship boxing and is predicting a dream outcome against the ‘Nordic Nightmare‘. The ‘Iron Man’, who has split from promoter Brain Peters, claims his proposed bout with the undefeated big hitting Finish finisher is the biggest of his career.

Helenius holds wins over some respected heavyweight names including former world champ Lamon Brewster and is seen by most as a future world champion. Rogan, however is planning to upset the apple cart by hijacking the German based fighters world title dream when the pair meet in latter in the summer.

“The fight looks to go ahead on June 26. I am mandatory challenger and purse bids are next week. This is a big chance for me to get back in the lime light. He has fought some decent names and he is ranked in the top ten. Without doubt it’s the biggest fight of my career. It is bigger than the Commonwealth title fights because he is a would be world champion on the verge of a world title shot,” Rogan told Mirror Sport yesterday.

Defeating such a promising talent seems like a big ask for the 40 year old especially considering Rogan will have to travel to Germany. But ‘The Entertainer’, who is upset with his recent standings in the British rankings, is confident he can inflict a first ever defeat on the Finn and give his fans more success to scream about.

“I am in training already and I am confident. I have no qualms about going to Germany. It’s just a plane ride away and I will be going there to do the business. I am going to beat him up and knock him out and if I put the work in I am confident I can do that.”

I hope big Marty shocks the world in June and gets a possible show down with David Haye for his WBA, WBO,IBF titles.....

LOL.

Seeing how Helenius brutalised Peter can only see a Nordic knockout.

How come I can not see anyones replys or posts?

This V2 is poor compared to 606.

Why does everyone hold Samuel Peter in such high regard?

In comparison to Rogan?

I just want to know why Samuel Peter gets such a good rep in the HW scene?

He doesn't particularly, he's a wild plodder, especially now but he has power and some decent wins like Maskaev and Toney.

Tbh outside of the K bros and Haye, anythings possible in such an awful division

Rogan V Holyfield at the Kingshall.

Thats what we all want Dee McK.

Haha,

You never know.

I rate Helenius fairly well. He's certainly nowhere near world level at present but he is coming along nicely. I believe he will start knocking over a few of the upper level Euro fighters such as Sosnowski and Dimitrenko then he will be on course to challenge for a World Strap.

Sad to say I don't think Rogan holds any problem for the Nordic Nightmare and he should finish the Taxi Driver by the end of 5 rounds.

You will incur Sheng's wrath for that one.

You talkin to me?

Rogan will knock him out take him home and charge him double fare for the journey.

Thanks, Sean. No, really. I mean it. Great stuff. Well done. Good work.

You rotten, heartless, merciless sod.

Sheng and I are fine Windy. He knows I have a lot of time for our cousins across the Irish sea.......

Hi Windy! And Seanmichaels!

I enjoyed the visit, but enjoyed the handout from the UK more.

Thanks buddies.

Fire that money back to you when we get paid!

I know, mate.

Morning, sheng. Glad you enjoyed the visit, mate.

I wasn’t too impressed with Helenius against Peter. He looked overawed and intimidated by the smaller Peter. If this was a fit and in condition Peter he would have won this fight in my opinion.

But after sayin all that Martin Rogan is a taxi driver who got beat by Sexton twice.

Helenius KO4

Helenius will stop Rogan on his feet between rounds 7-9 for me, perhaps after an early scare as Rogan starts quickly and roughs him up. Quite a good fight for Helenius really as Rogan will definitely get in his face but, sadly, I don't think he has the skills or power to win this one.

Power?

Rogan lacks power?

Must have had his strength sapped out of him like in the hit kids film Space Jam??

Didn't say he lacked power, just that he doesn't have enough power to win this fight. I don't see him flattening Helenius and he certainly won't outbox him. Don't get me wrong, I like Rogan, but I can't see how he wins this one. If he did I'd love it though!
