Racks up seventh straight win
FlyweightUFC
December 6, 2025
Barber defeated Karine Silva via unanimous decision (30-27, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC 323 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It's been a long road back for Barber following her last-minute withdrawal from a main event fight against Erin Blanchfield in May. She really battled hard here against Silva, displaying her trademark aggressiveness and ability to rack up a ton of damage in a short amount of time. Maycee struggled a bit early on before finding her range. She eventually won the significant strike battle by a 55-21 count, in addition to landing three takedowns and 6:20 worth of control time. It was a real solid effort, albeit against an opponent nowhere near the caliber of a Blanchfield. Barber has won seven straight dating back to July 2021, so more notable matchups are going to be forthcoming.

Barber's main event fight with Erin Blanchfield on Saturday at UFC Fight Night in Las Vegas was cancelled after Barber was not medically cleared to compete.
ANALYSIS
To say this happened at the last minute is an understatement. ESPN had actually aired the promo video prior to the fighter walkouts, at which point the news was announced. Barber missed weight by half a pound Friday morning, but it's not clear at the moment if the cancellation is related to that.

ANALYSIS
Barber was scheduled to fight Rose Namajunas at UFC Denver on July 13.

Barber has withdrawn from the UFC Denver contest on July 13 against Rose Namajunas, Alex Behunin of MMA Mania reports.
ANALYSIS
The specific reason behind Barber's withdrawal has not been disclosed to the public but will have to postpone her first career UFC main event a bit longer. She was set up to face former UFC strawweight champion, Rose Namajunas, potentially earning her a shot at the title, had she claimed the victory.
