In a quick storm, unbeaten Uruguay middleweight Amilcar Vidal (12-0, 11 KO’s) displayed exciting and lethal firepower stopping Texan 🇺🇸 Edward “The Hunter” Ortiz (11-1-2, 4 KO’s) in two rounds in the main event tonight at the Staples Center in Los Angeles live on FS1 💥💥

The tough ending unfolded as the protege of promoter Sampson Lewkowicz landed a long crushing right over the back-pedaling Ortiz, rocking and propelling him against the ropes near a neutral corner where the Montevideo-native unleashed a thrilling barrage of damaging hooks and uppercuts that forced the third man to stop the ravaging attack, freeing “The Hunter” Ortiz of additional punishment.
