1992

In 1992, Griffith was severely beaten by five teenage thugs after leaving a gay bar near Port Authority Bus Terminal, in the Times Square area (Manhattan, New York City). Heavily injured, he somehow got off the pavement, took the subway to Queens where his cries and moans awakened Luis Rodrigo Griffith, his lover and "adopted son," asleep in their basement enclave. He was taken to Elmhurst General Hospital where he spent four months. The injuries sustained in the assault where: broken ribs, jaw and spleen; brain damage, compounded by more than 200 prizefights, was severe; and his kidneys were damaged so badly that he was near death. The assailants were never caught. The incident started a sharp decline in his health as he struggled with pugilistic dementia and required full-time care late in life.
