Mario Barrios' opponent named will face Edgar Gabejan this Saturday in Brooklyn PhilBoxing.com Thu, 14 Apr 2016 SAN ANTONIO, TX (April 13, 2016) - Unbeaten super lightweight contender, Mario Barrios (14-0, 8 KO), has an opponent named for his upcoming bout scheduled for this Saturday, April 16 from Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Barrios will face Edgar Gabejan (27-32-6, 9 KOs), his most experienced foe to date, a veteran with over 500 battle tested rounds. The non-televised 8-round bout will take place on the undercard of a Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on NBC tripleheader headlined by undefeated rising star Errol "The Truth" Spence Jr. taking on former world champion Chris Algieri. Televised coverage begins at 8:30 p.m. ET/5:30 p.m. PT. Standing over six feet tall, the towering Barrios will look to carry the momentum from a fabulous 2015, where he went 7-0 with 5 knockouts. Fighting in New York for the first time in his professional career, Barrios wants to send a messages to the 130-pound division with a dominating performance. "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. My 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."
