Upon rising, Ortiz was met with a barrage of punches which sent him down again as referee Jack Reiss waived the fight off at the 1:14 mark of the round.
Said a thrilled Berto, “ I wasn’t hurt by the first knockdown. I was more mad at myself for getting caught. Once he went down it was over, I knew he was hurt and I went right after him. He couldn’t take my power.
“I feel terrific, it’s a great comeback victory. I would take on Danny Garcia sure, just tell me when and I’ll be ready.”
From a disappointed Ortiz, “I didn’t really lose control. I dropped my hand and he caught me. He is a hard puncher just like myself.
“This was a history book type of fight. He went down. I went down. Righty vs. lefty. This is boxing.
“I knew as soon as the head butt happened that it was not good because the blood started pouring. That’s not a big deal. It happens in boxing.
“I never disliked Berto. It is part of the game. He acted like he didn’t like me, but I always tried to shake his hand. I don’t hate anyone.”

Towards the end of the second round with the action reaching a boil, Williams unloaded with a massive left hand that sent Rodriguez sprawling to the canvas resulting in an immediate stoppage.
Said an elated Williams, “ I told you what was going to happen, that he was going be open for everything and he was. I countered him and hurt him with every punch. I could see his punches like it was slow motion.
“I want the title, absolutely I want to fight Adonis Stevenson next, he’s the champ and I want his belt.”
From a dejected Rodriguez, “I thought I could have continued. I didn’t know what the referee saw, but I could have kept going.”
“I didn’t fight the fight I was supposed to. I was supposed to go in there and box, and I didn’t do it. I should have taken my time.
“He throws like crazy and I wasn’t fighting defensively. I should have stuck to my game plan and that’s my fault.”

“I want the winner of either Mares v. Cuellar or Frampton v. Санта Круз.
“I am honored to beat a great champion like Montiel.”
From a shocked Montiel on the quick start by Lara, “ It’s what I expected. He didn’t do anything that surprised me. He just caught me with a shot. But he gave me a couple shots behind the head that weren’t good.”
When ask if he was fouled, “Апсолутно. Especially when I was down and he hit me in the back of the head. The referee should have called that (a foul).”
