Junior welterweight contender Antonio Orozco (21-0, 15KOs) will return to action in late February or early March, according to manager Frank Espinoza.
Orozco, 27-years-old, was in action three times in 2014 - with wins over Miguel Huerta, Martin Honorio and former champion Steve Forbes.
Espinoza would like to get Orozco in line for a title by the end of the year.
"Right now we're talking with Golden Boy Promotions and it looks like Antonio will be back in late February or early March. I want to get him bigger fight, bigger showcases next year. He's ready to take things to the next level and I think he could be ready to fight for a world title by the end of the year," Espinoza told BoxingScene.com.
