UFC: Mayce Barber calls out PVZ

The undefeated Maycee Barber has been after Paige Vanzant for a while now. After knocking out Gillian Robertson in the first round of UFC Boston she gave a nasty call out to PVZ and said “I am going to ruin her Instagram career” in the post-fight interview. The UFC fans liked the matchup of Maycee (8-0) and Paige Vanzant (8-4)  but PVZ chose to ignore it. It is surely a good matchup at the perfect time which has almost no probability of happening.

In a show with Ariel Helwani, Maycee Barber targeted Paige again and continued her verbal beef against PVZ. Maycee is surely happy about her MMA journey and she feels that Paige Vanzant does not deserve what she has right now. According to ‘The Future’ she is surely a better fighter than Paige and she can easily defeat her inside the octagon.
