Maycee Barber vs. Montana De La Rosa Targeted for UFC 269

A women’s flyweight clash pitting Maycee Barber against Montana De La Rosa is in the works for UFC 269.

MMAjunkie.com was first to report the booking. UFC 269 takes place on Dec. 11 and features a women’s bantaweight title tilt between Amanda Nunes and Julianna Pena. A location and venue has yet to be announced.

Barber halted a two-bout skid in her last outing, as she captured a split-decision triumph against Miranda Maverick at UFC on ESPN 27 on July 24. The 23-year-old earned a promotional contract on Season 2 of Dana White’s Contender Series and won her first three Octagon appearances before falling to Roxanne Modafferi and Alexa Grasso in back-to-back fights.
