Dial turned pro in 1999 and had wracked up a record in the vicinity of 4-1 in Oregon and Washington.

The Monday, July 31, 2000 edition of the Tacoma newspaper listed "Gregory Leon Dial," with a flattering mug shot in the "Persons Wanted" column. According to the News Tribune, a warrant was issued on Dial as of July 11 "because he is suspected of violating the conditions of his probation."

Dial was convicted in November, '98, and sentenced to a year in jail for "domestic violence assault, violating a no-contact order and reckless endangerment after striking his girlfriend..."

The Tribune describes an attack in which the 6'1" heavyweight slapped, choked, clubbed his girlfriend (while she held her 16 month-old baby) then threw her to the ground and kicked her in the face and stomach.
