Román “Chocolatito” González has undergone successful  surgery at a hospital in Costa Rica, due to an injury  to his right knee, which prevented him from fighting on December 8 in Carson, California.

The surgery was a complete success, according to Carlos Blandon, Manager  of the four-time world champion.

“We will be evaluating his recovery day by day, but Roman feels very motivated and relieved to have overcome the first part of this great test in his career,” said Blandon.

Roman’s injury happened during his camp, where he trained, guided by Coach Marcos Caballero and Physical Trainer  Rafael  Rojas, from Costa Rica.

Gonzalez, a four-time world champion, has a record of 47 wins (39 knockouts) and 2 losses. This year he only fought once, KO’ing  Mexican Moisés Fuentes on September 15.
