If the fracture heals completely in a reasonable position (no major deformity), you should be able to return to boxing. You should probably be using appropriate hand wrap and gloves to lessen the chance or re-injury.
Good luck.

Yes - your finger will heal -- bone scar and callous' are strong -- be sure to follow all instructions so that healing can be in-line. Then, be sure you take Vitamin D supplements 2000 IU per day, calcium 500-800 mg per day, a protein rich diet, and vitamin K2 100 mcg per day -- to assure bone building.
Learn to center your punches better an experienced boxer breaks the middle finger. You will heal and than train to get better at your sport. Good luck.
You should be able to hit again as long as you allow your fracture to completely heal. Usually this takes 6-8 weeks for the fracture to heal. You should refrain for any boxing for at least 3 months to give you a comfortable time for the bone to solidly heal though
