LOPEZ BUSTS ORTIZ'S JAW IN A HUGE UPSET

Josesito Lopez TKO9 Victor Ortiz... A stunning upset capped Saturday’s Showtime telecast from Staples Center in Los Angeles.  Underdog Josesito Lopez, a 140 pounder, came up in weight and stopped Victor Ortiz via ninth-round technical knockout in a thrilling bout that could be a contender for Upset of the Year. “I told everyone that I was going to shock the world,” said Lopez. Behind of the scorecards, Lopez sealed the win by breaking Ortiz’s jaw which Ortiz said happened in the fifth round.  After the bell, Ortiz told his corner he couldn’t continue.  “Yeah, Josesito broke my jaw,” Ortiz slurred immediately after the fight.  “I couldn’t close my mouth and it was very painful every time he touched me.”  Ortiz was taken to the hospital shortly after the fight. Lopez said, “I knew I had to fight the fight of my life to win.  I hurt him with a few punches in every round. He hits hard, man, but there was no way I was going to quit.  I am the Mexican Paul Williams.” source: showtime press release
