another headbutt

. This Ortiz bounces around like he's on fire. Forcing Herring to walk to him..dang. Another headbutt!

Very nice last 30 seconds for Ortiz in 2nd. Gets Herring on ropes and rolls off a short dozen shots. Nothing huge but had him covering and shut him down momentarily. If Ortiz can keep this pace that's a problem

Both off the gas just a bit in 3rd. Ortiz with the hustle and cleaner shots. Herring knows the opening as Ortiz bounces in, hands totally down but cannot get in clean again.

Short left hook counter got Herring early 4th and they also clashed heads for about the 5th time. Stronger close to the round for Herring kept Ortiz slowed and got a little work done to the gut.

Ortiz finally gets off at the two minute mark of 5th and lands well. Herring slowed, very open to those short counter hooks. Ortiz can be effective but man this guy has a ton of bouncy nervous energy going on. Bit of a spaz.

And he needs a helmet ffs

. He bounds in and they slam heads. At some point this ref needs to warn him. Herring now one and done type shots but Ortiz with the activity.

Herring letting these last two slip by. Ortiz literally bouncing like he's on a pogo stick..straight in hands down. Almost an obnoxious style if I'm honest

. You're not Maravilla Martinez. Herring has small success spinning him and when close and gets in clean but it's one at a time and little else. Now or never for Herring right now in 9th
