Jonathan Victor Barros (born 30 January 1984) is an Argentine professional boxer. He held the WBA (Regular) featherweight title from 2010 to 2011.

Professional career

IBF featherweight championship

In March 2010, Barros lost to IBF featherweight champion Yuriorkis Gamboa and his first shot at a World championship.[1]

WBA featherweight championship

On 4 December 2010, Barros beat the veteran Irving Berry and won the WBA World featherweight championship. On March 12, 2011 Barros had his first successful title defense against Miguel Roman, followed by another against Celestino Caballero. However, Barros lost the title in a rematch against Caballero on October 14, 2011. Barros lost to undefeated Mikey Garcia on November 10, 2012.

IBF featherweight championship

On 15 July 2017, Barros faced Lee Selby for the IBF featherweight title. Selby started the fight off well, and looked livelier than Barros, moving well and trying to land left hooks. In the sixth, Barros showed resilience, as Selby did not look as good as in the early rounds. But Selby got back on his toes in the eighth, boxing well and keeping his advantage on the scorecards. Selby managed to drop Barros in the final round to cement a unanimous decision on the scorecards.[2]

WBC super-featherweight championship

In his next fight, Barros again challenged for a world title, this time against WBC super featherweight champion Miguel Berchelt. Berchelt started strong and dropped Barros in the second round with a big left hook. Barros managed to get up and continued fighting, until he got dropped again in the third round, when his corner decided to stop the contest.[3]

In his next fight, Barros faced an experienced veteran in Alfredo Santiago. Barros got dominated by his opponent, losing the fight by unanimous decision.[4]
