El gimnasta norteamericano, de padres puertorriqueños, Jhon Orozco, vuelve a la competencia, con tan solo 24 años, su desafío esta en llegar una vez más a los Juegos Olímpicos, esta vez se realizaran en Rio de Janeiro – Brasil.
Orozco vuelve a las competencias, luego de superar lesiones que lo imposibilitaron en participar en varios torneos locales e internacionales, con una excelente recuperación, el gimnasta llega en optimas condiciones para disputar lo que será el «Winter Cup 2016», torneo que da la posibilidad de llegar con el equipo a Rio.
El torneo donde Orozco junto con otros gimnastas que estuvieron en los Juegos Olímpicos de Londres, tendrá cita entre el 18 y 20 de febrero en Las Vegas.
Sin duda alguna, Jhon tendrá que superar un puntaje para lograr estar en el equipo olímpico de los estados unidos, en los entrenamientos lo hemos visto con excelentes rutinas en barra, arzones y paralelas; a su paso tendrá que enfrentar a grandes gimnastas como Danell Leyva, Sam Mikulak, Chris Brooks entre otros.
