Maycee Barber is currently recovering from a broken thumb. Upon her return, though, she already knows who she wants to fight: Paige VanZant.
The top UFC prospect told Luke Thomas on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour that she should be ready to come back to the Octagon in late August or September. VanZant is the desired opponent, but Barber is not confident it will happen. The Colorado native said she doesn’t think VanZant wants to fight her.
“She doesn’t want to fight me, she doesn’t want to lose,” Barber said.
