Despite her best efforts, Maycee Barber was unable to land her desired fight with Paige VanZant next.
Instead, Barber will be taking on longtime mixed martial arts (MMA) veteran Roxanne Modafferi on January 18 from Las Vegas. It’s the same card Conor McGregor is rumored to make his highly-anticipated return on after over a year away. Speaking to Submission Radio recently, Barber explained why the fight with VanZant didn’t come together.
“They offered it to Paige at 125, she said no. From what I heard, she said she wanted a fight at 115 but she would need more time. So, as far as I know, it’s offered to her at 125 when she wants to take the fight at 125. And other than that, it’s kind of like, I’m just gonna keep doing what I do with my career, and when she decides to fight, we’ll fight.”
Despite claims of wanting a fight at 115 pounds, Barber doesn’t think VanZant will ever make that weight again. Regardless, she’s focused now on Modafferi, and moving up the ranks within the division in hopes of landing a title opportunity.
“Honestly, I don’t think she could ever make 115 again. And it’s been said multiple times that her family would not support that, and I can understand that, you know. Like, the cut to 115 does not make sense for her. Especially with her new addition.
“But honestly, I’ve moved past it. I’m focused on moving up through the ranks. And when she decides to fight – if she decides to fight, then I’ll still be here and I’m totally down to go and beat her up. Until then, I’m really not worried about it. I don’t care either way. My career will be successful no matter what, if I beat her up or not. That was kind of like a bonus – like, beat her up and prove a point. But that’s it.”
Barber went as far as to say that she believes Modafferi is a “way better” fighter than VanZant.
“Roxanne is way better of a fighter than Paige VanZant. And there’s a lot of women out there who are a tougher fight. Paige VanZant just did the marketing well, and that was because the UFC got behind her on that.
“But like I’ve said multiple times, she didn’t hold up her end of the deal and she didn’t’ continue to progress as a fighter, she just continued to progress on the more marketing and media side of that. So, yeah, there’s a lot more girls that had been working there their butts off a lot more than Paige has.”

A women’s flyweight bout between Maycee Barber and Roxanne Modafferi is in the works for UFC 246.
That’s according to MMA Junkie stating that it has been verbally agreed for the pay-per-view event set to take place in Las Vegas on January 18
Barber is undefeated in the UFC with three wins and is coming off an impressive TKO finish over Gillian Robertson. She would later call for a fight with Paige VanZant only for the latter to not reciprocate the interest.
Instead, “The Future” will get a chance at a 39-fight veteran in Modafferi. “The Happy Warrior” is coming off a decision defeat to Jennifer Maia in July and has alternated between wins and losses since the end of 2017. However, she will provide a tough test for Barber, having already inflicted a first career defeat on another prospect in Antonina Shevchenko earlier this year.
The latest lineup for UFC 246 now includes:
Although not confirmed, Conor McGregor has stated that he will be returning on this card. His likely opponent is Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone.
What do you think of this fight? Do you think Barber will make it 4-0 with the UFC or will Modafferi prove too experienced?
