Former two-time world champion Juan Manuel "Juanma" Lopez (33-3, 30KOs) has undergone a variety of medical tests in Miami, Florida, and now the Puerto Rican boxer is waiting for a date to start training under the tutelage of Cuban coach Pedro Luis Diaz, who currently trains Guillermo Rigondeaux and previously trained former three division champion Miguel Cotto. According to Carlos Gonzalez, Juanma had a very detailed physical examination, which included blood tests, a neurological review, a sugar count and more. Juanma was offered a fight in December but rejected the opportunity. He will probably make his return, at super featherweight in the first quarter of 2014.
