Barnett of Washington, D.C., will risk his impressive ledger of 17-1-1 with twelve knockouts against Hendrix of Gainesville, GA who is looking to rebound from his first professional loss and is now 18-1-1 with seven knockouts.
Barnett was 16-0-1 in his first seventeen bouts as he defeated the likes of former world title challenger John Brown, Pavel Miranda (15-1); Jose Leonardo Cruz (12-3-2); Johnnie Edwards (14-2-1) before being shocked by being stopped by Juan Santiago in one round.
