Jorge Barrios returns to the ring august 8

Is Jorge still under the GBP banner?

If so I'd love to see Barrios vs Katsidis or Barrios against Rolando Reyes.

 

There was some talk about Barrios vs David Diaz if I remember correctly. That'd be a good fight.

I think Julio Diaz is cooked unfortunately and wouldn't do much for Barrios. Maybe what Barrios needs to do is take on an up and comer at 135 and upset them to get his career back on track. It would be risky but I bet it beats him sitting around and fighting no namers to keep himself afloat.

 

Well there's Antillon and one of the Peterson brothers.

And yeah Casa vs Barrios would probably be a lot of fun. Imagine the trash talk between those two.

All this makes me wanna do is see another lightweight lightning PPV.

 

Perez is certainly a great trainer.

That said, He has a short lifespan left (Barrios) so perhaps he'll be limited in who he takes on.

This is a MASSIVE reach of course but perhaps MAB?

 

What weight?

 

He got a raw deal against Juarez that's for sure. The referee took two BS points from him, thus forcing him to take more chances. The end result was that gruesome cut on his lip and a loss. Barrios was winning that fight hands down. Between that fight and the victory Sergio Martinez had stolen from him against Cintron I'd say that the Argentinean fighters are safer fighting back home.
