Рет қаралды 26,333
10 ай бұрынMaycee Barber discusses her most recent win over Amanda Ribas this past June, if she was too brash in her UFC start, why she wants a rematch with Alexa Grasso, why she was crying during the date of that fight, why she ended up at Team Alpha Male, Grasso vs. Valentina Shevchenko 2, Rose Namajunas’ chances in the division, Julianna Pena’s trash talk, Erin Blanchfield’s hype, and more.

This division is really heating up. Strawweight has been my favorite women's weight class for years, but I can genuinely say that I'm looking forward to five -- *_five_* -- upcoming women's flyweight bouts: • Erin Blanchfield vs. Taila Santos • Natalia Silva vs. Andrea Lee • Karine Silva vs. Maryna Moroz • Rose Namajunas vs. Manon Fiorot • Alexa Grasso vs. Valentina Shevchenko 2 The first three are showcase bouts for me, where I expect Erin, Natalia and Karine to show out and prove their superiority. With Rose vs. Manon, I wanna see if Rose can adjust to the ten extra pounds. And with Alexa vs. Valentina, I wanna see if Alexa can maintain the belt. Plus, if Maycee's last fight is any indication to go by, then she's gone back to being the aggressive finisher she was in her LFA/early UFC fights.

i get what she's saying about valentina not being rousey but...valentina already matched rousey in terms of title defenses (yes i'm including the strikeforce defense), so her losing is right in line with what happened to rousey tbh. wanted to argue about 115 being more stacked than 125, completely forgot about santos and her visa issues, maycee's right, 125 is the division. hopefully rose can match up physically with the 125ers, bc in terms of skill, she's superior to most of them imo. joanna was in a similar boat but she's not as good as rose

@@firestarter924 true that! 😂. Basically, I hated her from the start. She's A LOT better, personality wise. Let's say realistic, mature etc. Liam Neeson lived about 5 doors away here, 🇮🇪, hence a bit of word play just around taken film & quote. You're 100% right. Valentina kicks her head right off her shoulders, inti, hopefully a packed stadium. Apex WON'T do it! Imagine resale value on ebay. Jessica Eye was only light sparring, point scoring type kick! 😂. Seriously, I'm able to listen to her now and it's NOT hate viewing.

@702KSH 10 ай бұрын
My assumption is Rose is just doing 125lbs because it's her first fight back and she doesnt want to cut down to 115. Id assume she will be back at 115 after this fight. Especially if Valentina wins her belt back as they are friends. Maybe if Valentina loses and Rose wins, they give Rose a title shot right away but cant imagine she stays at 125.
