use tochesBegin method for this purpose 

- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {

  [yourFirstTextField resignFirstResponder];
  [yourSecondTextField resignFirstResponder];
}

You do not need any thing else.When you touch anywhere on view then both textField resign no need to to know which one having focus.and when you touch textField then textField open keyboard by own.
