Reigning & defending WBC/WBA/IBF light heavyweight champion Roy Jones Jr., from Pensacola, Florida, defended his titles against David Telesco, from Port Chester, New York. Jones was 40-1, his single loss coming by DQ to Montell Griffin in 1997 (and later avenged). Telesco was 23-2. The fight concluded by 12 round shutout for the champion Judge: Melvina Lathan 120-108; Judge: Luis Rivera 120-108; Judge: Sid Rubenstein 120-106...

After the fight, Jones said the reason he didn't score a knockout was "because I fractured my left wrist in a motorcycle accident 3 weeks ago. Everybody said I should cancel the fight but I said, 'I can't. I've got a big date in New York.' If I had both hands, I would have knocked him out, but I only had one hand."
