Muratalla, 27, was in classic form tonight, knocking Perez down twice with straight left hands that put him on his back in the second round.
Perez didn’t beat the count after the second blow of the round and looked nervous when the action resumed. Muratalla landed several hard punches that rocked Perez, forcing referee Charlie Fitch to step in and stop the fight at 1:24 of the round.
