The 24-year-old Vidal, from Montevideo, Uruguay and now fighting out of Coachella, California, came alive after a tentative first two minutes and started landing hard left hooks to Ortiz’s right side.
Early in round two, Vidal landed a stiff counter right hand that wobbled Ortiz and the Uruguayan made the most of it, by landing an extended series of power punches with both hands. With Ortiz seemingly still lucid but offering no offense back for almost a full minute of being pummeled, referee Edward Hernandez Sr. was forced to wave it off at 1:58.
Vidal threw 72 punches in the brief but brutal encounter according to CompuBox, landing 32 punches, including 30 power shots. Ortiz threw 62 punches back, but only landed seven.
