In more ways than one, Mackenzie Dern is one of the hottest women in professional mixed arts right now. Fresh off a unanimous decision victory over Angela Hill in the main event of UFC Vegas 73 this past weekend, the 30-year-old Brazilian mixed martial artist has garnered the attention of UFC President Dana White.
“So badass,” White said of Dern at the post-fight press conference. “I’m so glad that’s the fight we moved to the main event here tonight. Let me start with, first of all, Mackenzie Dern looked unbelievable tonight. So aggressive. I don’t know what you guys thought, but I thought this was going to be one of those fights were Angela Hill came out, stand-up, try to take to her, and Mackenzie was going to do everything in her power to try and take it to the ground and submit her. To see Mackenzie’s standup, the punches, the knees, actually hurting Angela Hill, who is tough as nails.”
Before transitioning to MMA, Dern was a former world number 1 ranked IBJJF competitor and an ADCC and no gi BJJ (black belt) World Champion.
Dern was born in Arizona, the daughter of Wellington “Megaton” Dias, a highly decorated grappling competitor himself.
Dern was married to professional surfer Wesley Santos, but the couple separated in 2022. They have one daughter together.
