Did you not see Marrero pushing him which is also illegal. He pushed him all night and pushed him to the floor one time. Also Rojas said Marrero bit him in his ear.
They were both dirty. I think Marrero started doing dirty tactics once he saw that Rojas was getting away with it.
He was like might as well retaliate.
Respect to Rojas but the guy is so dirty.
And he was making it obvious to.
I remember watching Rojas when he was coming up and I thought he looked like a smaller Cotto.
Funny enough he used to fight on Cotto PPV undercards.
I remember back then they used to show the PPV undercards on Yahoo of all places.
I remember being really impressed with Rojas back then and I honestly thought he won against Beranza, his only defeat so far, but that fight basically stopped all of his momentum.
He doesn't fight like used to. I'm not even joking when I said he used to fight like a smaller Cotto, I believe Cotto's uncle was training him back then, his jab especially was very similar.
Now he relies more on getting up close and using his strength and power to overwhelm opponents, and dirty tactics of course.

Streaming on ESPN3 with WatchESPN on roku. Picture and sound perfect for me
Damn, well ****, I could have done that, i checked every espn channel at my parents house but only deportes was showing it. I have roku at my place and i use the watch espn app, completely forgot about espn3. thanks though man now I know for next time.
That was a really fun fight, I'd love to see these guys fight again. Rojas vs Jorge Lara again would be sweet too
It will be same result. Marrero folds under pressure, he a front runner. Rojas will KO him again only more vicious and probably earlier.
