Livinha Souza calls Maycee Barber to fight at UFC Fortaleza or ‘anywhere else’

Livinha Souza and Maycee Barber had two of the most impressive debuts among female fighters in the UFC in 2018, and the Brazilian is targeting an ex-Invicta FC champion vs. undefeated prospect clash in 2019.

Souza (12-1) steamrolled Alex Chambers in her Octagon debut last September, submitting “Astro Girl” with a guillotine choke in just 81 seconds. Two months later, Contender Series’ Barber (6-0) stopped Hannah Cifers by TKO in the second round.

The UFC is scheduled to return to Brazil on Feb. 2, hosting an event in Fortaleza, Ceara.
