Barrios won the WBC interim welterweight title a year ago with a unanimous decision victory over Yordenis Ugas. He then defended the interim belt back in May with a decision win over Fabian Maidana. Barrios was elevated to undisputed WBC welterweight champion in June, after demoting Terence Crawford following his move up to super welterweight.
Sporting a 28-6-2 professional record, Ramos is most notable for losing a split decision to Ugas for the WBA welterweight title back in 2020.
Most Valuable Promotions also announced a bout between Indian boxer and influencer Neeraj Goyat and Brazilian YouTuber and boxer Whindersson Nunes.
Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul takes place on Nov. 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX and will be streamed globally via Netflix.
