"This was no easy task for Gavilan, who changed his attack to a southpaw style in the eighth round and moved ahead in a commanding fashion after that. ... One of the best body punchers in his class, Jones proved a troublesome adversary for Gavilan until the Cuban switched his tactics in the eighth." - William J. Briordy, New York Times
