Montiel Stops Perez in Three; The Rest of Saturday’s Action

La Cetto Vineyard, Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico — Fernando Montiel (46-3-2, 36 KOs) scored his second straight stoppage victory since his crushing loss to Nonito Donaire in February by stopping Nicaragua’s Alvaro Perez (21-4-1, 12 KOs) in the third round of their scheduled ten.

After two rounds of feeling out his wide-swinging opponent, the former three-division world champ, Montiel, ended the bout mid-way through the third with a sweeping left hook that sent Perez to the canvas for the full ten count.
