"He let his guard down and he kept making the same mistakes," said Rosario. "When I saw the opportunity, I dropped him. "The first time we fought I wasn't ready," added Rosario. "I was weak. But I learned from the first fight what to do in the second one. That's how I took him out." "It was a close fight that could have went either way," said Hernandez. "He hit me with a good shot. I got up and felt O.K. I was just trying to dodge some shots and he hit me with a left. He was firing and I just should have thrown back. "I think the ref stopped the fight early, but that's not my job," continued Hernandez. "I'd definitely welcome a third fight with Rosario, though. I've never been afraid to fight anyone, so fighting him a third time wouldn't be a problem at all."
