27-year-old atomweight rising star ‘Vick’ Victoria Souza of Brazil is looking to make her presence felt when she takes on ‘Lil’ Savage’ Alyse Anderson at ONE 168: Denver.
The Ataque Duplo / Chute Boxe Floripa wants to showcase her punching power when she meets the 29-year-old American next weekend.
Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Souza shared her thoughts on her upcoming showdown with Anderson.
‘Vick’ said:
“She will feel the power of my strikes a lot. She will feel the power of my hands. So, I don’t know how, but I believe that will help me win this fight.”
Souza wants to build on a huge win over Itsuki Hirata last June, and a victory over Anderson would really boost her stock in the world’s largest martial arts organization.

Victoria Souza says Alyse Anderson’s speed is her best asset: “She is a very fast fighter”
‘Vick’ Victoria Souza knows what she’s up against when she takes on ‘Lil’ Savage’ Alyse Anderson at ONE 168: Denver next weekend. She knows she has to deal with the American’s speed.
Souza told ONE Championship:
“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.”
