27-year-old Brazilian atomweight MMA standout 'Vick' Victoria Souza is coming off the biggest win of her career thus far against Japan's Itsuki Hirata last June, and already, she's gunning for another big scalp when she takes on Alyse Anderson next weekend.
Souza holds Anderson in high regard and believes that a victory over the American fighter at ONE 168 will see her stock skyrocket.
Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Souza shared her thoughts on Anderson and what she thinks of her opponent.

The Ataque Duplo / Chute Boxe Floripa representative stated:
"I have watched [Anderson’s] fights. She is a very fast fighter, especially with her striking. She likes striking, she likes to respond quickly to blows, and she counters a lot. I think what makes her dangerous is her speed. But she has a good wingspan in addition to her speed."
Souza knows she's in for a tough battle against Anderson, but if 'Vick' wants to make it two in a row, she has to put on her best performance.
The Brazilian says she understands how big of a challenge Anderson is for her, and it doesn't help that she can't see any weaknesses in the American's game.
Souza added:
"I think those are her strengths. But I don’t see her weaknesses. She is a complete fighter and very dangerous."
