Just came across Montell Griffin's interview from few years ago, where he touches on the topic of the fight with Virgil Hill. Griffin says, that, after a DQ win over Roy, he wanted to unify against Hill. But was rushed into the rematch with Jones.

There was a small window for this fight to be for undisputed (spring 1997).

What if Griffin-Hill happens instead of Jones-Griffin 2 and Hill-Michalczewski?

Who becomes the WBC/WBA/IBF undisputed champ?

Griffin by decision in a close fight. I'd take a younger Hill by decision .

Quicksilver Hill by decision after outboxing Griffin behind his sharp long left jabs and combinations on the outside.
