Here's the match video of Maycee Barber vs Andrea Lee from last night's UFC show in San Antonio, TX. This fight is at Flyweight. Maycee is 24 years old from Fort Collins, CO but she trains at Team Alpha Male in Sacramento with Urijah Faber and Danny Castillo. She recently had shoulder surgery. Maycee is mainly a striker but I would like to see her go for the body more. She's too much of a headhunter. She is 7-2 in the UFC. Andrea is 33 years old from Shreveport, LA. She's 5-4 in the UFC. She looked pretty good a couple of years ago when she trained with Sayif Saud at Fortis in Houston. But she left and looked terrible in her last fight. So I scored round one 10-9 for Andrea because of ground control. Maycee did land some strikes. But I didn't think it was enough. The only problem was Andrea didn't advance her position so all three judges scored it 10-9 for Maycee. Round two was similar and I also scored it 10-9 for Andrea. Two of the three judges scored it 10-9 for Maycee. Thinking she was down two rounds, Maycee was better in round three and I scored it 10-9 for her. Two of the three judges scored it 10-9 for Andrea. So Maycee won by split decision 28-29, 29-28, 30-27. So what happened? When someone complained to me about the judging in England last week my response was wait until we get to Texas nest week. It will be worse. And in this fight I would say that two of the three judges were inept. Chris Lee is a regular UFC judge and he scored it 29-28 for Andrea. Frank Collazo is a local guy who should have been fired after screwing up as a ref on Friday. He scored it 29-28 for Maycee. But the worst was Dan Miriagliotta who is normally an inept ref. He scored the fight 30-27 for Maycee. I guess he's an inept judge too. I can blame the Texas AC for Collazo. But there is no excuse for someone as experienced as Miragliotta to be that inept. Check out the video for yourself.
