video review : Miranda Maverick versus Maycee Barber at UFC Fight Night
Daniel Cormier makes it seem like this wasn’t close. His objections after the fight suggest there’s something wrong with the judges, but, while I think Miranda Maverick won it, I would’ve been okay with the decision either way. Her pressure gives her the first round, but she can’t keep it up. By round three, she seems to be nearly exhausted as Maycee Barber puts it on her.
“I definitely had a good fight with her,” Barber says in her interview; Daniel Cormier is all smiles in her face; and I agree, though the ending seems a bit anticlimactic. I’ve been anticipating this bout since UFC 260 and I wanted two more rounds dammit. If it were a five-rounder, perhaps Barber would’ve finished her. Perhaps not. Miranda Maverick is a tough girl.

video review : Maycee Barber versus Alexa Grasso at UFC 258
This is the UFC 258 bout I anticipated the most and it doesn’t disappoint. I was rooting for Alexa Grasso but would’ve bet on Maycee Barber, partly because of her confidence. She said she’d become the youngest champ in The UFC, but apparently predicting The Future isn’t one of her skill sets.
She wins Round 3; Joe Rogan commends her for that comeback effort; and a 5-rounder might’ve went her way, but Alexa Grasso takes the first two. I like watching her (Grasso) fight; she’s so cute and reserved; and she seems to be getting better. Who would’ve thought she’d dominate on the ground?

video review : Maycee Barber versus Hannah Cifers at UFC Fight Night
Turn your head during the break unless you want to see Hannah Cifers disgustingly spitting saliva and blood onto a Bodyarmor towel. That also serves as a metaphor for the beating she takes, which, to her credit, doesn’t really happen until Round 2.
When it comes to size and strength, Cifers is outmatched as Maycee Barber, who also has an advantage in speed and footwork, hops about sexily landing head kicks and elbows. Once she gets Cifers down and in deep water, the shark attack begins.
