In the fourth round, Rosa was deducted a point for hitting Perez when he was down. This lead to a violent flurry from Rosa that nearly stopped Perez, but happened late in the round.  The following round Rosa who had dominated the whole fight continued the onslaught as he stopped Perez on the ropes. Rosa landed 72 power punches in the last two rounds of the bout as it was clear Perez might of been a bit too tough for his own good as the landed power punches increased in every round of the fight, not a good trend.
