Doug Garrett Marshall (born February 3, 1977) is an American mixed martial artist from Visalia, California who currently competes as a middleweight. He is a former WEC World Light Heavyweight champion.

Mixed martial arts career

Marshall began his career in the WEC at Heavyweight, but dropped down a weight class when Zuffa eliminated that division upon purchasing the organization. He won the Light Heavyweight title by defeating Lodune Sincaid and subsequently defended it twice against Justin McElfresh and Ariel Gandulla.

After losing his title to Brian Stann, Marshall left the WEC and began competing for the now-defunct Palace Fighting Championships.[1] Since the PFC has disbanded, Marshall most recently TKO'ed Keith Barry in the first round of PureCombat's Fearless event on October 17, 2009. [2]

When TPF middleweight champion David Loiseau pulled out of a TPF 10 fight with Giva Santana due to an undisclosed injury requiring surgery, Marshall stepped in to face Santana in a middleweight non-title bout.^[1]

Personal life

Marshall has a son named Gavin.^[2]
