Shines in UFC debut
Barlow defeated Josh Quinlan via TKO (punches) at 1:18 of Round 3 at UFC 298 on Saturday in Anaheim.
ANALYSIS
Barlow has some things to clean up, as you would expect from a guy with all of eight pro fights under his belt, but he has an ideal frame for welterweight at 6-foot-2, and his striking skills are advanced. Barlow possesses power and plenty of speed. Once he turned up the pace on Quinlan early in Round 3, the latter was finished. Barlow has never fought anyone of note, and his grappling abilities are an open question, but there's clear potential here. Keep an eye on the 28-year-old Tennessee native.
