On a November night in Cowboys Stadium, it was all going according to plan for welterweight Mike Jones.
Having easily won the first round and looking to build on a perfect ledger of 22-0 (18), the physically imposing contender looked to impress HBO and new co-promoter Top Rank with a jaw-dropping knockout of seemingly outmatched Jesus Soto-Karass.
What a spectacular mistake it was.
“He came in thinking he was going to knock me out,” recalled the 28-year-old native of Los Mochis, Mex., whose words were translated by assistant trainer Ricky Funez, “but I showed him and the people everywhere that I was better than that. I was not an opponent.”
