Scouting Report: Mackenzie Dern | UFCVegas61 via LevPisarsky
Difficult to tell, since opponents try to avoid takedowns and gain separation.
Dern focuses on grinding for takedowns in the clinch, eschewing the kind of striking in close quarters that could aid her efforts. While physically strong, she struggles for underhooks, making takedowns difficult to achieve.Poor due to dreadful technique, with her head too far to the side and back while bent over 90 degrees and going for the leg rather than hips. Can briefly muscle it through to completion on occasion but cannot maintain it with any regularity.
