Have to get Robbie Lawler on the show one last interview
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.
yea, when she said it, i instinctively disagreed, but then when i remembered the state of 115, i was like...damn she might be right lol
What a roster! It didn’t seem like a very exciting last many months for the ladies but here they come!
Honestly pretty humbled by her.. the same age and she's really doing that thing!!
title seems off. probably too small for flyweight
Good catch.
It’s funny when she was asked about rose, I know she wanted to say something about her camp. Rose needs to ditch pat “the predator” berry lmfao
100 pcnt
Maycee can get it
*lol* Indeed. She can. *lol*
i love watching her mature both fighterwise, but mentally and as a person too!
agreed. what a woman and what a sport
fight before last they gave her the win but she lost
@@firestarter924 maycee got the nod. It was close tho..
@@firestarter924 And it wasn't even close. Unless, of course.....you had a bias.
@@Fitkid7672 *lol*
She’s very driven, talented and rude. Great combo for a fighter. I’ve met her in person at UFC X and she is down right mean. Best of luck to her.
mean in what way? lol
She's awesome! She looked very strong and has showed a maturity in her skillset. I can't wait to see what's next, as it's exciting to see a fighter reach a new level. (Like Charles Oliveira)
she sucks lucky head kick she was losing till then plus her fight before she did lose but still was given the win no way she becomes champion
Maycee was a beast in her last fight! I'm excited to watch her next bout!
I think the caption should say 'too small for the Flyweight division.'
The Rose situation is literally that Manon had a signed contract with Blachfield. Then backed out and wanted an easier fight.
She is on the rise again. Title fight comin soon within this yr and next
Rose was supposed to be 'too small' when she beat Joanna soooo...
but joanna isent a physical fighter
we seen that when she fought val. and there are more physical fighters at 125 than val.
personally I think val would ragdoll rose. But, she could suprise me, as of yet though, rose hasent shown to be a physically strong fighter
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
3:40 “I really think it’s all timing”. Smart girl. That is true in all life.
very interesting comms about skills and experience and the fact she's still young bodes well for a potential champion fighter at the top
I was big on Maycee until the Grasso fight, not gonna lie. but so I havnt seen many interviews since then.....She's matured nicely. Hope u get that belt girl
im not into macy barber she never earned the fight against amanda ribas and amanda was beating her until the lucky headkick the fight before amanda she lost 100% robbery
Rose will absolutely destroy macyee.
She ain’t fight in like 2 years atp I doubt it
I would love to get destroyed by Macyee
Winner should start an 0 F tbh
I want to see it, like now. It's a good matchup
She's talented, and her smile is so pretty!
At 125 Rose would school Macey. Macey is not that great. She is just grimey. She hasnt even fought Top 5 at 125 yet. Not sure if she ever will.
Valentina did not make a mistake with that kick, why do people keep saying that?
Valentina uses that kick on all her fights. No one couldn’t capitalize on that kick except Alexa Grasso.
She capitalized on her mistake
@@Wickedgu3st It’s not a Mistake. The spinning kick is one of Valentina best weapons. Valentina succeeded with that kick on Holly Holm, Joanna Jedrzejczyk, Lauren Murphy, most of her opponents. She couldn’t do it with Alexa Grasso. I think on the rematch, Valentina will be thinking twice about doing that spinning kick.
@@jorrba3934 you just contradicted yourself. Of course she will think twice about throwing it again because that’s the mistake that cost her the fight. No one is saying grasso won by a fluke dude relax…
@@Wickedgu3st Oh I’m relaxed. I think you need to relax. Lol
Did she win against roxane ?
Grasso is a different fighter too!! She looks allot better, then when she faught Barber, last!!
Barber disrespecting Blanchfield, Blanchfield is taking the hardest of fights. So too is O'Neill, yet Barber calls out Murphy and Andrade, of which Andrade has gone back to strawweight.
Barber in this interview names all the best and most dangerous fighters, but is Barber calling them out?
barber vs blanchfield would be a great fight.
@@noyerbua9243 Barber already avoided Blanchfield. Barber mentions the best Fighters, but she doesn't want to take those fights!
Maycee is lovely & she has a lovely "certain skillet. Go Taken that belt!
lol no way she is good enough to be champ fight before last she lost but was given the win alexa grasso and valentino both whip her real easy
@@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. Zero expectations of success & Roxane, MMA maths, would be the REAL CHAMP if Maycee somehow rohipnoleded/Cosbyed either Valentina or Alexa...😂 Soz for confusion. 🥃🥃Other day.
Why does it say rose namajunas is too small for straweight division thats the tiniest division there is??😂😂
Cant wait to watch her throw punches 6 feet away from her opponent and get a decision gifted to her again
I know. I read these comments and I just Smh. I wonder if these comments are from "real life folks," and not bots.....or are they in some way part of the "UFC Media Machine?" It wouldn't surprise me in the least because if they're not, that only leaves one last thing. *lol*
*Everyone* of these dingdong heads that are fanboing over her.......are *EXACTLY* the types of 'viewers' the UFC Media Machine *groomed* from the beginning of "her ride." *haha!* Gotta love the power of monies and manipulation. Lets gooooo Jaycee Marber!!!
dat ace though
Lmao she got the creamie thing from Sarah Bowmar
she's amazing. ariel would do well to back that up with some coffee shop business deals. she's gonna be a ufc star. halfs on that is a good deal.
Damn, she cute
Yup. Badassery in full effect
😂😂😂
I like Maycee..very good fighter well rounded very pretty and intelligent and would make a great MMA analyst when she retires
She is my favorite fighter, amazing person
LIke here for Erin Blanfield being the "Future" Champion.
Blanchfield vs barber is the fight to make !
I think if she puts in the work and is motivated to be champ, Rose could be champ at 125. It’s all about her mindset, the mental game is her biggest battle. I don’t think Pat helps her with that.
I think it’s just her mental makeup. Rose loves to be the underdog with much at stake. I think she just flatlines when there is not much on the line. Pat Barry...you shouldn’t be coached by your spouse imo
Beat Weili twice and Weili would beat tf out of Maycee
What a coincidence, I drink her family's coffee in Aurora, CO often. To whom it may concern, they have solid source beans, 💯.
Alexia is not allowed to fight anyone because she may lose Valintinas belt . Distraction with the whole " Mexican belt ".lol
Rose is going do dominate. She's probably used to wrestling Barry tbh
She is pretty
pretty ugly
@charlespresley8238 🤢🤢🤢
Rose will rock her world
Most interesting woman fighter going today! So honest, great to hear 🫡
"Why so elusive?"
Ariel thinks everyone is avoiding him. He's so insecure. LOL.
LoL so needy....
He thought Paige Vanzant was avoiding him too. Very insecure cat.
Rizzwani spitting game
where ?
I too am excited to see who exposes her hole first
Would've been good if Roxy pushed her out of the chair and took over the interview!
I like rose at 115, she doesn’t cut a lot weight to get down to that, but maybe she feels 125 is her best path to getting the belt again
She beat the current 115 champ twice though…
125 is not the division to get a belt. 115 is less stacked than 125 currently.
Val is a bad match up for rose, Erin and talia. If rose went back 10 115 the only person I think who gives rose problems is zhang
@@ryan010ableand rose beat zhang twice. I love rose but the only thing that beats her is her mind. I think if she hadn’t lost to Carla previously and she was just any other opponent, she would’ve just mopped the floor with her but she can’t get out of her own way.
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.
Srawweight you mean Flyweight
Looking good.
bro she dont wanna date you chill, I think she is beautiful and comment it on her videos and pics so sees me liking her a lot everyone else she sees saying it she just thinks that those compliments are overused cause she already seen me saying it
Rampage Jackson is coming for you...
Such a babe and she fights 😍
😂😂🤣
😎
Shes hella cool
They call her Mean Maycee Barber.
Damn, she looks cute. And seems cool.
🥵🥵🥵
She’s so sweet & beautiful but such a beast in that cage. 😇
🤢🤢🤢
@@RemingtonMiles-sr9uf it’s ok if you’re 🏳️🌈 no judgement
@@supermanguy1214 It's ok if you're 🏳🌈 too young'un.
Valentina is good but old for fighting.The new younger generation are not as skilled but younger is better for fighting.
mb
I'm in love
🤣🤣🤣
too small for strawweight? then what she should do? move to atomweight? XD
War Maycee!!!
I love you Maycee!
RAMPAGE
Whats her 0 F @ ?! 😮
She might just be a narcissist. Constantly boasting and putting down rivals
Or, she's just a fighter and y'all hate her for no reason.
@@NoahCanFB She is a narcissist and unlikeable. She will never be a champion!
@@NoahCanFBshe got a five head got plenty of reasons😂
Thats the fight promotion game unfortunately.
@@T-Lo_OneHunnit so, more petty, irrelevant reasons? Gotcha
Maycee you're too cute to be fighting
i wouldnt say small i mean at least rose is average cmon
She’s cute
Awesome lady. Someone who actually has skills. Not like most ladies
soon her hype train will be derailed too...
I have a crush on maycee barber
Yeah she's THICC
Maycee is the most attractive woman in the UFC right now. 😍
🤢🤢🤢
Mayce thought that Grasso was going to be a walk in the park 💀
Alexa wont win against Valentina rematch.
Just gotta say that quickly.
agreed
Just don’t get depressed if Valentina loses again.
@@jorrba3934 I won't . I'm ok with both fighters 👍
yes she will
Typical florida sloot can smell the fish from across the sea
rose also needs to figure out her gender
careful we got a conservative here
@@dknights6414if someone just merely wants to define gender now they're "conservative"😂. Yeah theres a reason why normal people arent into that nonsense
@@hugh-jasole "normal" people have bills and 5011 other things to worry about rather than thinking about how other people identify...but i can't expect more from the ppl who were worried about gay marriage...and interracial marriage before that...and women being more than housewives before that...
anyway, enjoy being perpetually behind the times and scared of every change in society, traditionally that works out really well.
@@TheRulersBack18 "the ppl who were worried about gay marriage... and interracial marriage before that...and women being more than housewives before that"
Oh you mean Democrats? Yeah that's an excellent point .
@@TheRulersBack18 @TheRulersBack18 @TheRulersBack18 Hey history major, was Obama/Biden in 2008 for or against gay marriage? . Just curious as to whom when you say youre not surprised by these intolerant people , by whom you're referring to?
There’s just something about her.. Not the biggest fan of the women’s division with those punches u would throw in ur dreams.. I DO however tune in when she is fighting.. something about her and her fights that’s just more watchable than the others I guess
alexa grasso and valentina both whip your ass bad no way you get there never mind beating them they miles ahead of you you still have a few years to go before you good enough to even challenge them
