Glen Johnson vs. Roy Jones, Jr.
Glen Johnson vs. Roy Jones, Jr. was a professional boxing match contested on September 25, 2004 for the IBF light heavyweight championship.
==Background==
In his previous fight, then-WBA and WBC Roy Jones, Jr. was soundly defeated for the first time in his professional career after being knocked out in the second round of his rematch with Antonio Tarver on May 15, 2004 (his only other loss had been by disqualification in 1998).〔(Living Up to His Own Hype, Tarver Knocks Out Jones ), N.Y. Times article, 2004-04-16, Retrieved on 2014-01-07〕 Hoping to quickly rebound from his defeat, Jones secured a match with IBF light heavyweight champion Glen Johnson in an effort to regain the IBF title he had held from 1999 to 2003. Johnson had been a journeyman fighter through most of his professional career and though he had nine losses on his record, he nevertheless was able to land an IBF light heavyweight title match against Clinton Woods. The two fighters fought to a draw in their first fight on November 7, 2003, but Johnson was able to pick up the unanimous decision victory in the second. Despite his status as champion, Johnson came into the fight as an overwhelming underdog with Jones being a 6–1 favorite by the time of the fight.
