Amanda Ribas vs. Maycee Barber Analysis
Amanda Ribas has established herself as an impressive opponent in the Women’s Flyweight division with 11 wins and three losses under her professional record. Her fights demonstrate a well-rounded set of skills combining technical proficiency and strategic decision-making. Ribas boasts 42% striking accuracy – slightly less than her competitors but still respectable; she uses effective striking combinations while finding openings in opponents’ defenses to open them up. Ribas averages 4.80 significant strikes per minute during stand-up exchanges, which demonstrates her active engagement during stand-up exchanges.
Ribas’ defensive skills are equally impressive. Boasting an impressive 69% striking defense rate, she displays her ability to deftly dodge or block strikes to minimize the damage she receives. Her high striking defense percentage can also be attributed to her movement and footwork inside the octagon, which helps her avoid becoming a stationary target for attackers.
Ribas stands out in her grappling ability with her adept takedown game. Averaging 2.16 takedowns per 15 minutes shows off her prowess at landing successful takedown attempts and dominating the ground. Basting an accuracy rate of 52% shows her proficiency at timing and executing successful takedown attempts. Her takedown defense rate stands out even more, reaching 88% to keep control in stand-up combat situations.
Ribas excels at her submission game. Averaging one submission every 15 minutes, Ribas takes advantage of any grappling vulnerabilities to secure finishes through submissions. Her well-rounded skill set enables her to transition seamlessly from striking to grappling, making her an insurmountable threat in all facets of a fight.
Maycee Barber, also known as “The Future,” has made waves in the Women’s Flyweight division with her aggressive fighting style and impressive 12-2 professional record. Barber has demonstrated her striking capabilities and ability to finish fights decisively; her striking accuracy of 51% surpasses Ribas’, showing how effective she is at landing significant strikes. Barber often pushes forward relentlessly – often engaging in fierce exchanges against her opponents.
Barber’s offensive output is notable, averaging 4.27 significant strikes per minute. Her ability to keep up a high strike count can pressure opponents and tip judges’ scorecards in her favor. At the same time, her aggressive fighting style often results in significant strikes that shift the fight momentum in her favor.
However, Barber has only 54% striking defense – more than enough to suggest she may be more hittable than Ribas. Her ability to avoid or absorb strikes may become key when facing someone like Ribas, who boasts good striking accuracy. The barber must utilize her aggressive style while protecting herself in this matchup to succeed.
Barber has demonstrated her grappling prowess, yet her takedown average of 1.23 per 15 minutes falls below Ribas’s, possibly signaling a potential disadvantage when controlling fights on the ground. Barber’s 47% takedown defense may also prove challenging against someone like Ribas, who has an established track record for secure takedowns.
