Reminder That You're Going To Fall In Love With Mackenzie Dern Tomorrow

Screen Shot 2018-03-02 at 1.37.08 PM

Mackenzie Dern, one of the greatest Brazilian jiu jitsu prospects in the world for the past few years, makes her UFC debut tomorrow, and you WILL fall in love with her if you haven’t already. She’s currently 5-0 in mixed martial arts at just 24 years old, and while she has some holes in her game (like any “newcomer” does), she’s got a NASTY overhand right that puts bitches on the mat, and once they’re there, it’s all over. Dern’s grappling skill is above and beyond that of anyone else in the UFC women’s divisions currently, and as long as she’s got her weight cut on point she’s going to be a massive star in this industry. I mention that because she has struggled with making weight in the past, and was the very last person to weigh-in today, but hey, she made it at 116, so we’re all good! Everyone actually made weight from the UFC 222 card, so thank the MMA gods before you go to sleep tonight. Mackenzie headlines the FS1 prelims tomorrow at UFC 222.

I’d love to one day roll with her and explore some of the holes in her game.
