“I’m eager to get back in the ring and start the year off with a bang,” Said Mario Barrios, the rising star who hails from San Antonio, TX. “I’ve been in the gym since my last fight in mid-December and I’m ready to make statement in this fight. I want let everyone in the super-featherweight division know I’m gunning for them, especially the all the champions. Min 2016 march toward a world title starts this Saturday. I can’t wait to let my hands go and give the east coast fans a great night of action.”
