Just when it appeared Jones would elevate his greatness to unprecedented heights, the unthinkable happened. While on his way to yet another dominating victory over an unbeaten, but overmatched Montell Griffin in Atlantic City in 1997, he couldn't put the brakes on his own speed and quickness. Wilting under a barrage of blurring punches, Griffin tilted to one knee as Jones, anxious to finish him off, tried to hold back two half-hearted punches that glanced off his opponent's battered face. Referee Tony Perez immediately moved in, waved off Jones and to the stunned champion's disbelief, declared a dazed Griffin the winner on a disqualification...hitting an opponent when he's down.
