    Round 1 Cox 10-9 Close
    Round 2 Cox 10-9 Close

    Both men hurt in both rounds. Groves more accurate, Cox bringing the pressure.

    Cox isn't doing anything other than closing the gap and letting his hands go and it's working.

    I've been really impressed with the quality of the bouts on this card. This is another corker

    Good chin but he can't take too much more of this, accumulation of damage surely.

    Round 1: 10-9 Cox
    Round 2: 10-9 Cox

    Cox gets a few more strong lefts in as Groves stays in the corner. Groves lands a well placed uppercut that Cox didn’t see coming. Groves with a sharp combo at the end of the round. Close round

    Grooves needs to dispatch this guy early before he engine slows down . Never saw cox before , i didn't know he was this handy. Great fight !!

    Cox comes in with his hands low , Groves probably will time him coming in and win by TKO

    Groves gets backed up far to easily. Was the same with Chudinov until he pulled it out the bag.

    Cox is a dirty fighter so expect some rough house tactics when things begin heating up.

    You get the sense that Groves will pick Cox off under pressure with a hook. But Cox is very aggressive and fired-up and putting Groves under pressure and making him uneasy in every second.

    Cox doing a lot better than most thought. Isn't respecting Grove's power.
