December 12, 2024
Barez will take on Andre Lima at a UFC event in Las Vegas on March 15, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Barez will take on the younger Lima in March, looking to use his experience to challenge the undefeated Brazilian. Barez will head into the bout coming off a decision victory over Victor Altamirano. The 36-year-old Spaniard will look to use his stopping power to take down Lima, boasting an impressive 7-0 record in KO/TKO decisions. With three of his six professional losses coming via decision, Barez will likely be looking for an early finish against the 25-year-old.

Nabs first UFC victory
FlyweightUFC
September 28, 2024
Barez defeated Victor Altamirano via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Paris.
ANALYSIS
It was a strong performance from Barez in a pick 'em fight. It was made all the more impressive by the fact he was coming off a first-round submission defeat to Jafel Filho in his UFC debut about 14 months ago. Barez landed a Round 1 knockdown and connected on the more damaging blows most of the bout. The concern here is that he faded in a major way the second half of the fight, nearly allowing Altamirano -- who is going through his own issues at the moment -- to steal the win. Barez's next challenge will be to put forth a strong 15-minute performance.

Quickly taps in UFC debut

Barez lost to Jafel Filho via submission (arm-triangle choke) at 3:26 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in London.
ANALYSIS
Making his UFC debut in a pick 'em bout, Barez didn't show much. He gave up a takedown to Filho following a wild exchange of back-and-forth action on the feet, eventually allowing his opponent to easily improve his position and clamp on the arm-triangle choke that closed the show. Barez appeared on Dana White's Contender Series in October 2021, dropping a split decision. He'll be 35 years of age this coming December and has zero history of success against quality competition, so the upside here is very limited.

ANALYSIS
The 34-year-old Barez will be making his UFC debut in London after most recently competing under the Ultimate Warrior Challenge banner. Filho, meanwhile, is set to make his second UFC appearance after losing to Muhammad Mokaev in his promotional debut at UFC 286 in March.
