"He did a bit of judo as a kid," the ring announcer shouts, seemingly seriously.
That doesn't sound very intimidating.
Markie is a YouTuber with 256k subscribers. Good for him.
A bright start from Markie, who nips in lands a few punches and then darts out of range. He's very light on his feet but Barker is the more composed fighter and looks more willing to stand in the pocket and trade.
Then a moment of danger as Barker pins Markie to the cage, but he's able to scramble and run.
Markie already has a bloody nose. He's struggling with Barker's power.
Barker then lands a big right hook and attempts to take Markie to the ground, but again Markie is able to scramble and slip from his grasp.
Interestingly, FAME MMA UK appear to be streaming this with ... Polish commentary.
