YouTuber Brutally Knocked Out By Pro Boxer With 0-13 Record

A YouTuber got an absolute hammering when he stepped in the ring with a professional fighter this weekend.

Alberto Frati, who runs the FightersLife channel, went up against unfancied welterweight Stefan Markovic on Saturday night.

Frati had one fight and one win behind him, having made his pro debut over two years ago.

He previously fought Michael Isaac Carrero, a journeyman with a record of 13-53-6, at an event in Malta.

But his time out of the ring caught up with him and he wasn't able to continue his winning streak against Markovic.

Despite the Bosnian not having won any of his previous 13 bouts, he knocked Frati out in pretty brutal fashion.

Markovic dominated the contest and put the Italian on his back in the sixth round.

A clip shared on social media shows Markovic connecting with a swift right hand, sending his opponent tumbling to the canvas.

But Frati isn't the only would-be fighter to find himself a little – a lot – out of his depth recently.

Last year, a referee had to put a stop to an MMA bout in the first round after one of the fighters got an absolute pasting.

Craig Wood was a late call up at the Evolution of Combat 9 event in Glasgow, Scotland, back in September 2021.

The 21-year-old stepped in the cage with Aron Leo, who dominated the fight and knocked Craig down almost immediately.

A photo was shared on social media, showing the pair standing side-by-side after Craig had been beaten, quite comprehensively, within the first 15 seconds of the fight.

The post led to many people commenting and asking what the hell was going on and how Craig was paired with Leo.

Sharing the photo to his page, MMA writer Harry Williams asked: "Can we please find out who allowed this fight to go ahead? I know there’s journeymen, but there’s a line, surely."

Replying to him, someone who attended the event shared footage from the fight itself, in which Craig is seen falling to the canvas after receiving a combo from Aron.

He then receives a couple more thumps as he lies on the ground before the referee steps in to put an end to the contest.

Ahead of the fight, Craig was introduced as Craig Knight, which caused even more confusion.

Replying to Harry in the comments, Craig explained: "I asked them to change name to mine but because I filled in for another journeyman within the couple hours of fight they couldn't."

He then hit back at the criticism of his physique, saying: "I'll let ya in on something, I'm in a lot better shape than I look."
