===WBA (Regular) super-lightweight champion===

====Barrios vs. Akhmedov====
On September 28, 2019, Barrios was victorious against undefeated [[Batyr Akhmedov]] by [[unanimous decision]], with scores of 114–112, 115–111, 116–111, to win the vacant [[List of WBA world champions#Super lightweight|WBA (Regular) super lightweight]] title in a tough contest on the undercard of [[Errol Spence Jr. vs. Shawn Porter]], in which Barrios dropped Akhmedov twice in the fourth and twelfth rounds but took considerable punishment resulting in most of his face being swollen.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.boxingscene.com/mario-barrios-drops-akhmedov-twice-wins-results--142943|title=Mario Barrios Drops Akhmedov Twice, Wins Very Tough Decision|publisher=Boxingscene|access-date=2019-09-29}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2019-09-28|title=Mario Barrios claims his biggest victory on the Spence-Porter undercard|url=https://www.ringtv.com/578586-mario-barrios-claims-his-biggest-victory-on-the-spence-porter-undercard/|access-date=2021-06-15|website=The Ring}}</ref> The decision was considered controversial by many pundits and observers.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Christ|first=Scott|date=2019-09-28|title=Mario Barrios wins questionable decision over Batyr Akhmedov|url=https://www.badlefthook.com/2019/9/28/20889253/spence-vs-porter-results-mario-barrios-wins-questionable-decision-batyr-akhmedov-scores-pbc-boxing|access-date=2021-10-25|website=Bad Left Hook|language=en}}</ref>

====Barrios vs. Karl====
On October 31, 2020, in front of his hometown crowd at [[Alamodome|Alamodrome]] in [[San Antonio]], Texas on the undercard of [[Gervonta Davis]] vs. [[Léo Santa Cruz]], Barrios defended his WBA (Regular) title with a sixth-round technical knockout victory against Ryan Karl. In the sixth round, an accidental head clash caused a bad cut over Karl’s right eye, and blood poured down his face. After the cut was examined by the ringside doctor, the fight resumed and the two men immediately went hard after each other, until Barrios dropped Karl during with a pair of left hooks to the chin during a fierce exchange. As soon as Karl went down, the referee called off the fight at 2 minutes, 23 seconds. At the time of the stoppage, Barrios led 48–47, 49–46, 49–46 on the judges' scorecards.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-10-31|title=Mario Barrios scores sixth-round knockout of Ryan Karl on Davis-Santa Cruz card|url=https://www.ringtv.com/612751-mario-barrios-scores-sixth-round-knockout-of-ryan-karl-on-davis-santa-cruz-card/|access-date=2021-06-15|website=The Ring}}</ref>

====Barrios vs. Davis====
Barrios faced fellow undefeated [[Gervonta Davis]] on [[Showtime (TV network)|Showtime]] [[Pay-per-view|PPV]] on June 26, 2021, at the [[State Farm Arena]] in [[Atlanta]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=Random Hits|title=Gervonta Davis vs. Mario Barrios - PPV Card Officially Announced|url=https://www.boxingscene.com/gervonta-davis-vs-mario-barrios-ppv-card-officially-announced--157759|access-date=2021-06-15|website=BoxingScene.com|language=en-us}}</ref> Davis knocked Barrios down twice in the eighth round, and again in the eleventh round en route to an eleventh-round technical knockout victory, handing Barrios his first professional loss.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Gervonta Davis vs. Mario Barrios fight results: Live boxing updates, scorecard, start time, undercard|url=https://www.cbssports.com/boxing/news/gervonta-davis-vs-mario-barrios-fight-results-live-boxing-updates-scorecard-start-time-undercard/live/|access-date=2021-06-27|website=CBSSports.com|language=en}}</ref> At the time of the stoppage, Barrios was down 97–91 and 96–92 twice on the judges' scorecards.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2021-06-27|title=Gervonta Davis drops Mario Barrios three times, scores 11th-round stoppage in Atlanta|url=https://www.ringtv.com/623502-gervonta-davis-drops-mario-barrios-three-times-scores-11th-round-stoppage-in-atlanta/|access-date=2021-10-25|website=The Ring}}</ref>

===Move up to Welterweight===

====Barrios vs. Thurman====
After the loss to Davis, Barrios decided to move up a weight-class and challenge the former-unified ([[World Boxing Association|WBA]] and [[World Boxing Council|WBC]]) welterweight champion [[Keith Thurman|Keith "One Time" Thurman]], who, like him, was coming off of a loss. 

Their bout took place at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas on 5 February 2022, with their fight also serving as a WBC welterweight world title eliminator.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Donovan |first=Jake |date=2022-01-19 |title=WBC President: Thurman-Barrios Is An Official Eliminator, Not Final |url=https://www.boxingscene.com/wbc-president-thurman-barrios-an-official-eliminator-not-final--163542 |access-date=2024-01-10 |website=BoxingScene.com |language=en-us}}</ref>

And after 12 rounds of boxing, Barrios lost a clear unanimous decision with scores of 117–111 and two scores of 118–110.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2022-02-06|title=Keith Thurman outclasses Mario Barrios in first bout since July 2019|url=https://www.ringtv.com/634542-keith-thurman-outclasses-mario-barrios-in-first-bout-since-july-2019/|access-date=2022-02-06|website=The Ring}}</ref>

'''<big>WBC Continental Americas Welterweight title</big>'''

====Barrios vs. Santiago====

A year after the second consecutive defeat of his professional boxing career, Barrios then faced Puerto Rican Jovanie "El Lobito" Santiago in a welterweight under-card fight for the [[O'Shaquie Foster|O'Shaquie "Ice Water Shock" Foster]] vs [[Rey Vargas]] pay-per-view bout on 11 February 2023, at Alamodome, San Antonio, Texas, U.S. 

The fight with Santiago was also for the then-vacant [[World Boxing Council|WBC]] Continental Americas welterweight title.

After seven tough-fought rounds that saw both fighters unwilling to give the other the upper hand, in the eighth round, Barrios landed a wicked left hook to Santiago's liver that crumpled the Puerto Rican on the ropes. 

Santiago managed to beat the 10-count and got back up on his feet, but, with blood in smelt in the air, Barrios bull-rushed his obviously still-hurting opponent and began landing a barrage of combinations on him. 

Seeing enough, Santiago's corner threw in the towel which prompted referee Mark Calo-Oy to stop the fight at 1:42 of the 8th round and thus making Barrios the victor of their fight by way of technical-knock-out and the new holder of the [[World Boxing Council|WBC]] Continental Americas welterweight title.

===WBC Interim welterweight champion===

====Barrios vs. [[Yordenis Ugás|Ugás]]====
Seven months and a half after his victory over Santiago, Barrios clashed with former WBA (Super) welterweight title holder [[Yordenis Ugás|Yordenis "54 Milagros" Ugás]] for the then-vacant Interim WBC welterweight title. With their fight also serving as an under-card fight for the [[Canelo Álvarez|Saul "Canelo" Alvarez]] vs. [[Jermell Charlo|Jermell "Iron Man" Charlo]] pay-per-view bout on 30 September, 2023, at [[T-Mobile Arena]], Paradise, Nevada, U.S.

Coming into the fight, Barrios was deemed by a wide consensus as the (3-1) underdog due to being considered by the majority of the boxing world to still be untested in the welterweight division whereas his scheduled opposition, [[Yordenis Ugás|Ugás]], was not only a very decorated amateur fighter, but also a long-time welterweight who had already faced and fought elites in the division such as [[Thomas Dulorme|Thomas "The Frenchman" Dulorme]], [[Shawn Porter|Shawn "Showtime" Porter]], [[Manny Pacquiao|Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao]], and [[Errol Spence Jr.|Errol "The Truth" Spence Jr.]] just to name a few.

Much to the surprise of many, however, the odds were proven wrong on fight-night itself with Barrios battering and even dropping [[Yordenis Ugás|Ugás]] twice-- once in the second round and once again in the twelfth --en route to a unanimous decision victory over the Cuban with scores of 118-107 twice and 117-108 all in favor of Barrios. What's more, back in the 12th and final round of their fight, Ugas was deducted a point for intentionally spitting out his mouth piece-- which is illegal -- twice so that referee Thomas Taylor would pause the fight and buy him some time to recuperate.

And with the upset-win, Barrios became the WBC Interim Champion of the welterweight division.<ref>{{cite news |title=Showtime Boxing results, highlights: Mario Barrios batters Yordenis Ugas for interim welterweight title |url=https://www.cbssports.com/boxing/news/showtime-boxing-results-highlights-mario-barrios-batters-yordenis-ugas-for-interim-welterweight-title/ |work=CBSSports.com |date=1 October 2023 |language=en}}</ref>

====Barrios vs. Maidana====
On the 4th of May, 2024, at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada. Barrios would go on to make the first defense of his WBC (Interim) Welterweight Title against Argentina's own heavy-handed [[Fabián Maidana|Fabian "TNT" Maidana]]. Their fight also served as the Co-Main event of the Saul "Canelo" Alvarez vs Jaime Munguia pay-per-view bout.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Iskenderov |first1=Parviz |title=Mario Barrios vs Fabian Andres Maidana set for Canelo-Munguia PPV co-feature |url=https://www.fightmag.com/mario-barrios-vs-fabian-andres-maidana-set-for-canelo-munguia-ppv-co-feature/ |work=FIGHTMAG |date=10 April 2024}}</ref> After dropping his opponent in the 3rd round, fighting through a swollen right eye, and hunting down a tentatively defense-minded Maidana in the later rounds, Barrios won the fight by way of unanimous decision (116-111x3).<ref>{{cite news |last1=Iskenderov |first1=Parviz |title=Mario Barrios drops Fabian Andres Maidana in third round en route to win by UD |url=https://www.fightmag.com/mario-barrios-drops-fabian-andres-maidana-in-third-round-en-route-to-win-by-ud/ |work=FIGHTMAG |date=5 May 2024}}</ref>

=== <big>Elevation to (WBC) Champion</big> ===

On the 27th of May, 2024, the World Boxing Council (WBC) declared [[Terence Crawford|Terence "Bud" Crawford]] to be their welterweight "Champion in Recess"<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-05-27 |title=Terence Crawford WBC welterweight champion in Recess - World Boxing Council |url=https://wbcboxing.com/en/terence-crawford-wbc-welterweight-champion-in-recess/ |access-date=2024-05-28 |language=en-US}}</ref> due to the uncertainty of him ever coming back down to the Welterweight Division after his fight with [[Israil Madrimov|Isaril "The Dream" Madrimov]] for the WBA Super-Welterweight Title.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-28 |title=Terence Crawford vs. Israil Madrimov: Shawn Porter makes his prediction {{!}} DAZN News US |url=https://www.dazn.com/en-US/news/boxing/terence-crawford-vs-israil-madrimov-shawn-porter-makes-his-prediction/10ko3no3stfg112z4smqdpw338 |access-date=2024-05-28 |website=DAZN |language=en-US}}</ref>

And with Crawford now downgraded from his championship status, Barrios may become elevated from being the Interim-Champion into the full-fledged Welterweight WBC Champion; however, Barrios has not yet been elevated by the WBC.
