According to overseas reports, former champion Jorge Barrios (50-4-1, 35KOs) is training for a planned ring return on October 6th in Argentina. The fight has been inactive since October 2010. He faced a harsh legal battle over a January 2010 car accident which killed a young pregnant woman.

This past April he was sentenced to four years in prison. Shortly after he started serving the sentence, he regained his freedom after bailing himself out with a $200,000 payment.
