Bakersfield Police reported that a gunman entered the home where Marlow was staying on Christmas Eve, with it also claimed that, at the time of the assault, Marlow was also armed and defended himself.
Marlow and the assailant, who was identified as Jacob Malena, were both killed in the shooting.
Malena allegedly forced his way into his ex-girlfriend's house, where he surprised Marlow.
Marlow had fought just four times professionally in his burgeoning mixed martial arts career and was last seen in the cage in June, when he scored a second-round TKO win against another unbeaten prospect, Joel Guzman.
He fought under the nickname 'The American Psycho', which is the same name that was used by UFC Hall of Fame fighter Stephan Bonnar (Died a few days before and posted
