There would be some competition, but I see Benn overwhelming Groves by the mid rounds.

I am cutting against the grain and also my partisan liking for Benn.
I would basically want Benn to win.

But Groves was very canny and his strength, accuracy and speed were always underrated.
I could see him getting dropped, cut and bullied but scoring freely and winning a close one.

I keep coming back to a British SMW elite Eight-Man tournament and need to post on that.
