Manager Frank Espinoza has advised BoxingScene.com that well-regarded featherweight prospect, Oscar Valdez, will make his 2015 debut on April 11th in Laredo, Texas as part of the 'Solo Boxeo' series on UniMas.
"We're very excited to get Oscar started with this fight and we hope to keep him busy like we have been and eventually during this year get him into ten-round bouts,''said Espinoza." We just want to continue to develop him and let him grow as a fighter. There's no rush but we know where we're going with Oscar."
The 24-year old Valdez has a mark of 14-0 (13 KO's) and he performed six times last year. His last outing came on December 20th, a fifth-round stoppage of Jean Javier Sotelo in Phoenix, Arizona. Valdez is thought to be one of the key building blocks of the future for Top Rank, INC.
