Mackenzie Dern doesn’t believe a title shot in 2021 is out of the realm of possibility.
Dern has the opportunity to make a big leap up the rankings of the always exciting strawweight division when she takes on fifth-ranked Nina Ansaroff this Saturday on the main card of UFC Vegas 23. The event takes place at the APEX and will air on ABC.
Heading into the first women’s UFC fight to ever air on ABC, Dern is coming off of a hard fought unanimous decision win over Virna Jandiroba at UFC 256 to cap off 2020 with a perfect 3-0 record.
