The first domestic showdown of the World Boxing Super Series is scheduled for October 14th when top-seeded super middleweight George Groves (26-3, 19 KOs) puts his WBA world title on the line against his undefeated countryman Jamie Cox (23-0, 13 KOs) in a ‘Battle of Britain’ at The SSE Arena, Wembley in London, United Kingdom.
There could be more ‘Battle of Britains’ on the horizon as 50% of the fighters selected for the WBSS eight-man 168lb division are British. The other two Brits are Callum Smith and Chris Eubank Jr. and both are betting favorites to advance past their quarter-final matchups as well.
