Nigel Benn's boy up next. Could be a short one.

Impressive debut from Benn, was clearly a class above the Bulgarian but even still seeing the way he was moving and creating angles was impressive.

I agree with the comments about Hunter being lazy, I think a better attitude and he'd have won that.

Hard to tell in a fight like this, the guy is barely throwing anything and isn't moving much but Groves didn't really do anything special either.  As he's shown before though, he does have some power so when he gets a clean shot through he will knock people out.

Round 7-9 any finish @ 5/1 is a good bet.

Martins round odds are ridiculous for a champion.
