Jonathan Gonzalez: record, next fight and profile →
Undefeated Jonathan 'Mantequilla' Gonzalez (18-0-1 and 14 KOs) has returned to training ahead of a planned return in 2016 where he hopes to get a title shot at 154 pounds or middleweight. Gonzalez hopes to fight in late February or early March, looking to return to the ratings as soon as possible.
Jonathan 'Bomba' Gonzalez will return to the ring on March 19 in a function that will presented by Universal Promotions in Puerto Rico. The fighter returns in his first bout since last October's ten round split decision win over Carlos Ruiz in Argentina, where they fought for the vacant WBC Latino flyweight championship.
According to sources in Mexico, Jhonny Gonzalez (58-9, 49KOs) is potentially going to face Jonathan Oquendo (25-4, 16KOs) of Puerto Rico on the undercard of the Floyd Mayweather-Andre Berto Showtime Pay-Per-View, taking place on September 12th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The fight would add another Mexico vs. Puerto Rico flavor to the card. Puerto Rico's Roman 'Rocky' Martinez is already part of the card, defending his WBO super featherweight title against Mexico Orlando Salido in a rematch.
Reynaldo "El Maestro" Ojeda remained unbeaten after scoring a unanimous decision over Mexico's Sergio Villanueva. The bout headlined the latest installment of 'Noche de Campeones' on DirecTV in Puerto Rico. Ojeda (16-0, 9KOs) fought for the first time since a virtual shutout over Patrick Okine last September.

Former Olympian Jonathan 'Bomba' Gonzalez (14-1-1, 11 KO's) will be active on November 14th, fighting in an eight round bout at 110 pounds as part of a card being staged by Universal Promotions at the municipal gym Pedrín Zorrilla. "This fight decides whether to drop down to 108 pounds or stay at 112," said the boxer. Gonzalez intends to campaign at 108 pounds and for that purpose he hired a nutritionist who has worked with the former junior lightweight champion of the WBO, Roman 'Rocky' Martinez.
Earlier today Universal Promotions sent out a press release announcing the signing of flyweight contender Jonathan "Bomba" Gonzalez (13-1-1) who will return to the ring on August 30th in Puerto Rico. The 23-year-old fighter of Puerto Rican descent said that he is excited to be returning to action and feels that Universal Promotions is the perfect company to guide him to a world title.
Back for the first time after suffering his first career setback to Giovanni Segura, former Olympian Jonathan 'Bomba' Gonzalez (13-1-1, 11 KO's) had to settle for a majority draw in an eight round bout with Michael Ruiz Jr. (9-4-2 and 3 KO's) at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center in Buffalo, New York. Judges Don Ackerman and Eric Marlinski scored the bout 76-76, while Tom Schreck saw it 77-75 for Gonzalez.
In the televised opener, 2008 Olympian and 24-year old professional Middleweight Jonathan Gonzalez (18-0-1, 14 KO), 162 ¾, of San Juan, Puerto Rico, had his hands full with 25-year old Rogelio Medina (32-6, 27 KO), 165 ¾, of Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, but ultimately pulled out a split decision over ten rounds with a steady second half. The referee was Sammy Burgos.
The inactivity of Jonathan 'Bomba' González (13-1, 11 KO's) is apparently going to come to the end when he reappears on May 29th at a function to be held at the Niagara Convention Center in Buffalo, New York, which is going to mark his first fight back since his only career setback occurred last August 17th against former two-time world champion Giovanni Segura. That TKO loss in four rounds later led to his departure from Top Rank and his breakup with handler Orlando Piñeiro.
