Can Maycee Barber Continue Her Rise?
3 years agoYoung star Maycee Barber (9-2) will look to continue her rebound from a devastating injury she suffered in her first career loss to Roxanne Modafferi back in January of 2020. In her first contest after her recovery in February of last year, Barber dropped a decision to Alexa Grasso. Looking to get right back into action, five months later she took on a tough opponent in Miranda Maverick and earned a split-decision win. Now the 23-year-old will face Montana De La Rosa. Typically a finisher, seven of Barber's nine career wins have come by the finish, with five of those coming by knockout/TKO. Averaging almost two more significant strikes landed per minute than her opponent, Barber is a big DraftKings favorite with a salary of $9,000. Throughout her UFC career, Barber averages 71.5 fantasy points per contest. De La Rosa has some big wins under her belt and should not be overlooked, though.
