Former UFC competitor Rory Markham was arrested Saturday in Chicago on charges of domestic battery and bodily harm according to the Cook County Sheriff'€™s Department records.

Markham, 31, who last competed at UFC 111, losing to Nate Diaz by first-round TKO in the Stockton, California native'€™s first bout during his brief run at welterweight, posted a 16-6 record over his career, including a 1-2 mark inside the Octagon.

A fixture in the IFL and a former Miletich Martial Arts representative was arrested in March on similar charges. He is currently being held in Cook County Jail with bail set at $250,000, and scheduled to appear in court Tuesday.
