Video: Has Maycee Barber changed the narrative about her UFC title chances?

Maycee Barber delivered the most emphatic performance of her octagon tenure thus far with a statement victory over Amanda Ribas at UFC on ABC 5.

Barber (13-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) extended her winning streak to five consecutive fights when she put Ribas (11-4 MMA, 6-3 UFC) away with a second-round TKO in Jacksonville, Fla. The effort yielded an extra $50,000 in Performance of the Night bonus money, and opened the eyes of many about Barber’s ceiling.

After debuting in the UFC in November 2018 as a 20-year-old, Barber claimed she would be the youngest champion in company history. She ran into consecutive defeats, however, and the window passed, killing some of the hype around her.

Now 25, Barber’s recent performance have restored faith in the eyes of many, though, and she said following her win over Ribas that she sees the title in her future. But can she get there?

MMA Junkie’s “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Brian “Goze” Garcia, Nolan King and Farah Hannoun joined host “Gorgeous” George Garcia to discuss Barber’s future.
