I think this would be a dangerous fight for Barber to accept. Souza is no joke. She's a former Invicta FC champion.
I think the fight would be exciting:
Of Souza's wins: 84% have been by finish.
Of Barber's wins: 83% have been by finish.
What do you think?

Excerpts:
”Bring her, or any other girl, to fight me in my home country, or anywhere else,” Souza said. “Whatever the UFC wants, I’m in, but if I could choose, I really wanted to fight here to get more intimacy with the Brazilian audience. It was incredible to fight here. I’m sure I will give the Brazilian people more joy in the sport.”
Souza fought in Brazil for the first time in four years when she beat Chambers in her hometown of Sao Paulo, a stretch that included a 4-1 run under the Invicta FC banner with wins over Katja Kankaanpaa, DeAnna Bennett, Ayaka Hamasaki and Janaisa Morandin, and a split decision defeat to Angela Hill.
Looking to add another championship belt to her resume in the near future, the 27-year-old strawweight promises to honor fighters from the “old generation” inside the eight-sided cage and make the sport more popular in Brazil.
”I will give my life to do at least one percent of the history that the old generation has done and, if possible, win more belts and put the sport where it belongs, at the top,” Souza said. “We have to prove we’re talented, that Brazil is a country of warriors. If they come here thinking that we’re dead, we’ll prove them wrong.”
