Henry Briones
Jose Enrique Briones (born October 22, 1980), better known as Henry Briones, is a Mexican mixed martial artist and competed in Bantamweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).
Briones grew up in Tijuana playing inline hockey due to the lack of ice hockey rinks in his native Mexico. For his senior year in the high school, Henry moved to live with his aunt in Tulsa, Oklahoma in pursuit of professional ice hockey career. However, his dream did not materialize and he returned to Mexico to attend law school. Compared to most of the mixed martial arts fighters, Briones started combat sport much later in life. He started training MMA when he joined Entram Gym at the age of 26.
Briones fought primary in the Mexico circuit and amassed a record of 15-4–1 prior joining the UFC. Initially, Briones tried out for UFC's Latin America developmental program and was accepted into it.
After training at Jackson's MMA for over a year at UFC's expense, he was a participant in The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America 1, an installment of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) produced reality TV series "The Ultimate Fighter" in May 2014. He faced Marlon Vera on quarter-final round and lost the fight, failing to be selected as one of the contestants of the show.
Briones made his promotional debut on November 15, 2014, at UFC 180 in Mexico City against Guido Cannetti. He won the fight via rear-nake choke in round two. He earned a Fight of the Night bonus for his performance.
He next faced Cody Garbrandt on July 11, 2015, at UFC 189. He lost the fight via unanimous decision.
Briones was scheduled to faced Brad Pickett on February 27, 016 at UFC Fight Night: Silva vs. Bisping, but he pulled out from the fight, citing injury, and was replaced by Francisco Rivera. The match was rescheduled to UFC Fight Night: Arlovski vs. Barnett six months later on September 3, 2016, and the bout was removed where Briones for undisclosed reasons and was replaced by Iuri Alcântara.
On November 5, 2016, Brinoes took on Douglas Silva de Andrade at UFC Fight Night: Dos Anjos vs. Ferguson. A spinning back fist from Silva de Andrade sent Briones to the ground and he lost the fight on round 3.
