Gonzalez having the fans behind him but Berdugo who came to fight the 2-0 while moving his body well in defense and wasn’t startled when Gonzalez’s punches landed. Round 2 Gonzalez came alive on and Berdugo counted. Round 3, Gonzalez got dropped to his knee and received the count and ended up pushing Berdugo to the canvas. Gonzalez must be getting frustrated in the ring. While going to the body, head, head, body, Berdugo dropped to his knee from the body shot and the referee called off the bout.
