Espinosa Boxing Club signs signs Antonio Orozco

2007′s Manager of the Year Frank Espinoza recently signed the latest fighter to his growing boxing club, amateur standout Antonio Orozco of National City, CA. Orozco, who grew up in Garden City, Kansas, has been a professional since 2008 and currently holds a record of 7-0, 5KOs. In Kansas, Orozco amassed a stellar amateur career with wins over Jesse Vargas and Javier Molina along with several titles such as the Ringside Nationals and bronze and silver medals in the Jr. Olympics.

“This is the next step we were looking for. When he approached us, we didn’t have any second thoughts,” the 22-year-old Orozco said about the well respected Espinoza. “We believe he is the correct person to get us up there. We are very excited, this was the opportunity we were looking for. He knows how to get his fighters up there in a timely manner, we are not in a rush. He know how to do it.”

The admiration is mutual as Espinoza believes that he has a diamond in the rough in Orozco.

“I see a future star in Orozco. He has all the talent in the world. He has a lot of ability and power. I see good things for Orozco in the future. I like the way he fights,” Espinoza, who has guided Martin Castillo and Israel Vazquez to world titles, stated. “I had heard some good things about Antonio and I wanted to see for myself. I think he fits well in the Espinoza club along with my other prospects.”

Espinoza counts bantamweight Abner Mares, featherweight Ronny Rios, lightweight Luis Ramos and super lightweight Carlos Molina among his current charges and is confident that he will pave the right road for Orozco.

“The plans are to move him along, he is still young so time is on our side,” he said in closing. “We are going to keep him active and keep winning on our way to fulfill his dream, to become a world champion.”
