“I believe I should be next in line for the belt with a dominant performance, a dominant finish and putting my name out there and doing what I need to do,” Barber mentioned.
“My goal in every performance if for people to want – not just this one, but every single one – I want them to be like, ‘damn, she really goes out there and she goes for a finish. She goes out here to hurt these girls.’ I think that’s what makes me dangerous is I don’ just want to go out there and fight these girls and win. I don’t want just a decision win. I want to go out there and hurt these girls and make sure that they know that when they get done with a fight with me they never want to fight me again.”
