Erin Blanchfield isn’t particularly exciting in Maycee Barber’s opinion.
In an exciting bout versus Blanchfield, Barber will be the main attraction at UFC Vegas 107 on Saturday night. Both have made jabs at each other in the lead-up to this crucial bout for the flyweight class.
Maycee Barber describes Erin Blanchfield as a dull fighter with a bad fighting style that spectators aren’t interested in before the main event bout.
“She’s just trying to figure out what she can say bad about me, because I think she can’t really talk anything bad about my style or anything about my marketability,” Barber said to Ariel Helwani. “I think it’s just the only thing she can say about me. That she thinks I might not show up to the fight versus her.
“I think her fighting style is terrible, and there’s a lot of things you can say about Erin Blanchfield. She’s a boring fighter, she has a terrible fighting style. It’s boring. Have you watched it?” Barber continued. “Do you think she’s an exciting fighter? She’s a good fighter, but is she an exciting fighter, though?”
It’s obvious that Maycee Barber disapproves of Erin Blanchfield’s grappling and wrestling-heavy fighting style.

Barber intends to force Blanchfield to fight and be entertaining at UFC Vegas 107, despite her disapproval of her fighting style.

My plan is to hurt Erin and to make her bleed a lot and to finish her,” Barber said. “I think that that’s a good statement, and I don’t want a decision. I think that all of Erin’s fights go to boring decisions, so my plan is to finish her.”
