New Gods are immune to telepathy, according to Martian Manhunter, and according to Mr. Miracle Granny Goodness conditions minions to resist all telepathy below Darkseids own (This would easily include Barda, since she was captain of Darkseids fury's.)
Add in the Mega Rod and comparable, if not superior, physical stats and Barda should win this.

Maxima's TK is more impressive than her TP though.

Maxima wins a hefty majority. 8-9/10. Her tk is too strong and Barda can only get wins from BFR here.

Maxima isn't getting KO'd in one shot here. Her shields are too strong. If she does takes a hit she's going to recover and hit back harder. Barda's tough, but she can't do anything against someone that's physically on her level and has Superman busting tk.

The big problem is the shields. If she can get shots past the shields, though, she can dish serious damage.

Eh, Maxima has the mobility advantage too.
One megarod blast won't KO her. She really HAS to boomtube her. energy blast is just going to piss Maxima off and then she ends it with a tk vicegrip.

There's also, say, Boomtubing behind her to get in close
Barda has both flight and teleporting via tube, so she's pretty mobile.

Her TK isn't Superman busting. Far from it.
The weaker "Byrne" era Superman walked right through her bloodlusted TK efforts, and knocked her out with a mere backhand.
And generally, when she hits Superman, all she accomplishes is to send him flying, but without really causing much damage.
Barda isn't Superman, but considering she's tough enough to duke it out with Wonder Woman, I can't see Maxima one shotting her..

Maxima's screwed with Superman's head as well. Along with Wonder Woman and Orion. Her powers grew as time went on.

She screwed with Supermans head in the example I mentioned, too. It was the Eradicator influence that counteracted it, although Supermans own durability let him resist the TK attacks.
Orion tends to have showings all over the place, but Ostrander pretty firmly established New Gods are completely immune to mind screwing, when he directly linked the New Gods history with the Martians history. If MM can't touch a New Gods mind, Maxima isn't doing it.

Also, motherboxes can provide mental shielding too.

A good fight, but Maxima should take the majority. Maybe not 8-9/10 as suggested above -- Barda isn't going down that easy, by any means. But Maxima is often thought of more as she was 2 decades ago (much as some people still think of WW) -- her powers/physical abilities have grown, and she's capable of taking at least 6/10 against Barda. But Barda does get her share, for sure, and her TP resistance, coupled with the Rod, makes this far from a slam...

Big Barda ain't no pussy. She rather get cream than use out of character tactic like BFR.

It's in her character. She knew she couldn't beat Lobo and BFR'd him.
