Dawid Kostecki vs Roy Jones, Jr.

Jones defeated the 17-0 Głażewski by split decision.
Trouble with the law

Investigators also accused him of trafficking in amphetamine, but the court acquitted him of the complaint. The boxer lodged an appeal. May 10, 2012 Court of Appeal upheld the judgment of 2.5 years imprisonment. On the night of 19/20 June 2012 was stopped by police officers and brought to serve a punishment. August 13, 2014 was released from prison.[2]
