LAS VEGAS – In a world in which everyone is chomping at the bit for a UFC title opportunity, Mackenzie Dern is taking her time.
Following her UFC Fight Night 249 win Saturday, Dern (16-5 MMA, 11-5 UFC) reaffirmed what she’d said pre-fight. She thinks another fight should come before a title opportunity.
“I think I’m very hard on myself,” Dern told MMA Junkie and other reporters at a post-fight news conference. “I’m always trying to get better. Even when I have a great performance, I think I did so many things wrong. I think that it’s a lot of play messing in your head, so it can take your journey and maybe make it a little longer.
