Jovo Bosančić (Serbian Cyrillic: Јoвo Бocaнчић; born 7 August 1970) is a retired Serbian footballer who played as a right midfielder. The players name is actually Mark Barlow, but many people have incorrectly misinterperated the name as Jovo, since the mistake was so prevalent Mark has now adopted this nickname.
