Mario “Azteca” Barrios

 Mario Barrios turned professional in 2013 and built a solid career at super lightweight before moving up to welterweight.

In 2019, he became super lightweight world champion, successfully defending his title before facing elite-level opposition.

In 2024, after holding the interim WBC welterweight title, he was elevated to full champion once the belt became vacant.

Since moving to 147 pounds, Barrios has reinvented himself and returned to headline status in the division.

 Mario Barrios has a record of 29-2 with 18 KOs.

Ryan “King” Garcia

 Ryan Garcia debuted as a professional in 2016 and quickly became one of the most talked-about names in boxing.

His dazzling hand speed and devastating left hook positioned him as one of the lightweight division’s brightest prospects.

In 2021, he captured the interim WBC lightweight title by knocking out Luke Campbell, solidifying himself as a legitimate contender.

He has faced high-level challenges across multiple divisions, aiming to firmly establish himself among the sport’s elite.

Ryan Garcia has  a record of 24-1 with 20 KOs.
