The reign of Mike Jones as IBF WW champ turned out to be a short one. Jones took the belt from Alfonso Gomez in June with an 11th round cut TKO in a close fight - Gomez leading on 2 of the 3 cards.
Mike's 1st defense took place in Italy vs. Antonio Moscatiello. The fight was close until around the 4th when an uppercut sent Jones to the canvas for a count of 4. AM basically proceeded to beat up Jones the rest of the fight until a left hook ended matters @ 2:21 of the 12th.
AM was up 329 to 154 in PL & ahead on the cards: 107-100, 108-100 & 108-99.
