At 330 or so pounds, Chris Barnett is bound to turn some heads, but despite six consecutive knockouts wins – including this doozy from this past weekend – “Huggy Bear” is arguably flying under the radar.

The 28-year-old made the most of his opportunity at the April 11 Inoki Genome Fight 3 event in Japan.

In the second round of his tournament fight with Emil Zahariev (22-6-1), Barnett fought off fatigue to land a perfectly placed spinning back kick to the gut. The blow forced Zahariev to verbally submit midway through the round.

With the surprising speed and agility he’s displayed in a super-sized frame, Barnett is usually a crowd favorite. But this past year, he spoke to MMAjunkie about the difficulty of finding opponents.

Barnett is fun to watch. A big Sumo wrestling look dude, that moves really well and is creative (as you could see) with his striking. He's a perfect example of why I wish other orgs would adopt a Super HW division.
