Junior welterweight Antonio Relentless Orozco, the No. 1 contender for unified world champion Terence Crawford, will risk his status when he takes on Fidel Maldonado Jr. on Dec. 16, Golden Boy Promotions announced Monday.The fight will serve as the co-feature on an HBO Latino-televised tripleheader at the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio, California.Orozco (25-0, 16 KOs), 29, of San Diego, was in the running to face Crawford on Dec. 10, but his side opted to wait for the title shot. Crawford will instead face John Molina, and Orozco will get at least one more bout under his belt before eyeing the title shot in 2017.My dream of becoming a world champion is getting closer and closer, and I am confident I will keep my undefeated streak alive against Fidel Maldonado Jr., Orozco said. Fidel doesnt know how to take a step backwards, and anyone who knows my style knows that I dont either. Fans should expect fireworks.Maldonado (22-3-1, 19 KOs), 25, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, is on a four-fight unbeaten streak (3-0-1) since he suffered a fifth-round knockout to then-undefeated rising contender Amir Imam.One guy is nicknamed Relentless, and the other has knocked out almost all of his opponents. This is a guaranteed slugfest, Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De La Hoya said. Whoever comes out on top in this fight will likely be looking at a world title shot in 2017, so they will both leave it all in the ring.The other two televised bouts, also scheduled for 10 rounds, were previously announced: light heavyweight contender Vyacheslav Slava Shabranskyy (17-0, 14 KOs), a Ukraine native living in Los Angeles, against Miami-based Cuban defector Sullivan Barrera (17-1, 12 KOs) in the main event and welterweight prospects Eddie Gomez (19-1, 11 KOs), of New York, and Rashidi Ellis (16-0, 11 KOs), of Lynn, Massachusetts, squaring off in the opener. Featherweight contender Ronny Rios (26-1, 11 KOs), of Santa Ana, California, will be on the untelevised portion of the card. He will take on Roy Pitbull Tapia (12-1-2, 6 KOs) in a scheduled 10-rounder.Among the prospects appearing on the card will be heavy hitting junior welterweight Vergil Ortiz Jr. (2-0, 2 KOs) and lightweight Ryan Blue Chip Martin (15-0, 9 KOs).

The blood clot was discovered following Vargas start against Seattle on Monday, making his move to the disabled list retroactive to Tuesday. He will seek a second opinion at UCLA before considering surgery. "You always want to keep pitching, but at the same time, Id rather not have a blood clot in my shoulder," said Vargas, who was scheduled to start Saturday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. "If I was pitching and it came loose, then it could really cause some issues. So Im definitely glad the staff recognized it and we got it taken care of and looked at, and were going through the right channels." Vargas is 6-4 with a 3.65 ERA in his first season with the Angels, who acquired him from the Mariners in the off-season. A few days before his last start, he noticed temperrature differences in his pitching hand caused by circulation problems due to the clot.dddddddddddd. "It doesnt affect the way I can throw the ball or anything like that," Vargas said. "Its just not letting blood travel like it should." Jerome Williams will take Vargas turn in the rotation Saturday against Pittsburgh. The Angels also selected the contract of right-hander Billy Buckner from Triple-A Salt Lake to fill Vargas roster spot. Williams got bumped out of the Angels rotation recently despite going 5-2 with 3.14 ERA this season, making seven starts and 18 appearances. Williams was put in long relief instead of Joe Blanton (1-10, 5.62 ERA), who has improved in his last few starts despite his dismal record. Buckner got his first major league victory since 2009 for the Angels last month, pitching five innings of two-hit ball in Kansas City. The 29-year-old hadnt pitched in the majors since 2010.
