Today in Texas, world-renowned personal injury attorney Thomas J. Henry, whose work has been featured in Forbes and Fortune, to name a few is sponsoring undefeated World Champion boxer, Mario “El Azteca” Barrios (26-0, 17 KOs). Henry made it official in San Antonio, TX, at the press conference for the upcoming championship fight against four-time world champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis. The duo made an entrance, fitting for a king, with a red carpet walk leading from a private jet accompanied by a professional Aztec Dance Troupe.
As we mentioned, Thomas J. Henry’s partnership with Mario “El Azteca” Barrios begins Saturday, June 26, 2021, with Barrio’s championship fight against Gervonta Davis (24-0, 23 KOs). In the SHOWTIME PPV main event, Davis will attempt to become a Three-Division World Champion as he faces the reigning, defending, and unbeaten champion from San Antonio, Mario Barrios. The pay-per-view telecast begins at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. The new multi-fight deal will also transcend the sport of boxing and allow Mario Barrios to work alongside Thomas J. Henry on multiple philanthropic endeavors hosted and promoted by Thomas J. Henry and his law firm. In March, Thomas J. Henry partnered with Christy’s Hope, The Purple Door, and SAFE Alliance, to launch a campaign against domestic violence. Last year, Thomas J. Henry created and hosted ‘Austin Elevates,’ using his professional connections and celebrity status to recruit top entertainers such as Kygo, Daddy Yankee, DaBaby, and 88Glam, to perform a one-of-a-kind charity concert at the Austin 360 amphitheater. The event raised more than $160,000 for its beneficiaries which Thomas J. Henry personally matched, bringing the total amount to $327,720.
“This experience has been a wild and fun ride and yesterday, as my team and I got picked up in the Bay Area from a private jet that my title sponsor, Thomas J. Henry, provided,” said Barrios. “Thomas is a well-respected gentleman in the state of Texas, and especially in my hometown of San Antonio, where his law firm headquarters is located. An incredible press conference was waiting for me at the airport when I was picking up my family in San Antonio, all because of TJH. All the local media showed up in support of my fight with Gervonta Davis airing this Saturday on SHOWTIME PPV. The press conference was like a movie scene (smiling), with Aztec dancers, DJs, and all, it was great. I’m looking forward to doing some incredible community work with Thomas J. Henry.”
“Right now, my dreams and aspirations are becoming reality as these special moments are happening in real-time,” Barrios continued. “We arrived in Atlanta last night and El Azteca is in warrior spirit, and best believe I’m coming for this man who is trying to take my belt. I want to thank all my San Antonio fans and everyone in Texas for their continued support. I want to let them know that we are going into battle together, as one. Tank has his army of fans, and I have mine. It’s going to be a great fight and may the best man win.”
The SHOWTIME PPV telecast begins at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. Be sure to tune in.
