Barry Barnes

Barry "Bazza" Barnes is DFC personality, multiple product CEO, and former Welterweight/Heavyweight fighter. Becoming one of the first DFC multi-million dollar stars.

Barry Barnes was the first ever character of 'Wattie', a legend of a bloke. This is why to this day people still call Wattie, 'Barry'.

Barry Barnes was born in a city within Rural, Australia, Nsw in a city called Wagga Wagga. Unlike a lot of these athletes with 'champion fathers' or resources at their command, Barry grew up with almost no MMA resources. Living on a rural farm, it was difficult for Barry to reach any type of combat gym. So instead, Barry simply trained on his farm with his brothers and cousins. They would spar and learn from old books and YouTube tutorials. Barry did this from the age of 11 to 18, where he began joining MMA competitions. Surprisingly, his self taught skills were much better than the other amateurs which he was facing. The local gym were so impressed they offered to train Barry up full-time. Moving away from his farm and family, hew shifted all his focus on fighting and on the side, business. He opened up a local bottle shop with his fighting money and opened a small gym in the back. Him and his buddies would train here.

Although starting at a young age, the DFC wouldn't sign him until the age of 26. Where he would have a mostly dominate MMA career and a record of 10-10. After feeling failed within the DFC, he decided to retire and focus on his beer company, Bruised. Where the beer would eventually become a global favourite amongst beer drinkers. This is where Barry would find his true success.

Although, not long after, Barry called for a exibition boxing match against DFC GOAT, Akira Fujii. The two would battle it out in a fight of the ages, but Barry's hand was the one that was raised at the end of the night. This made a statement to all the fans, that Barry still sure could fight.

His style consists of counters, heavy strikes and precise kicks.
