It sounds like former Jiu-jitsu world champion Mackenzie Dern is pretty satisfied with the way her fight went down at UFC Vegas 23. Although she picked up another submission victory, this time against former top contender Nina Nunes, the Brazilian was especially excited about her performance on the feet.
In an interview with Ag Fight, Mackenzie emphasized just how happy she was about her evolution as a striker, calling the fight nearly perfect. Even though Dern knows there are still further adjustments to be made in standup, the submission specialist feels ready to take on any of the division’s top contenders.
