Ortiz likely took Round 4 with aggression and by beating Lopez to the punch. Lopez threw more in the last minute of the round, but landed infrequently. Action was paused in Round 5 when Ortiz hit Lopez in the back of the head while pressing down on him. Lopez went to the mat and was allowed a few minutes to recover as the referee called the ringside physician up to view Lopez. By the end of Round 6, Lopez had developed some swelling to his left eye. An active Round 7 saw the two trade power shots. Lopez landed a pair of clean uppercuts that snapped back Ortiz's head, before Ortiz pressed him against the ropes and threw. Lopez motioned for Ortiz to "bring it on" and the two traded with Lopez appearing to hurt Ortiz in the final seconds. In Round 9, Lopez closed again with some power hooks. Following the round, the fight was surprisingly stopped as Ortiz stood up and tried to push past his cornerman to inform the referee that his jaw was broken. The referee asked Ortiz is he was wanting the fight stopped and he replied, "Yes, because my jaw is broken."
