Crouch: The UFC Has Already Expressed Interest in Mackenzie Dern

John Crouch

She may only be 2-0, but after an unconventional and vicious submission of Montana Stewart at Legacy 61, the UFC is taking notice. Speaking with her MMA coach and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt, John Crouch, he said the UFC has already mentioned that they could possibly be interested.

“We’ve had discussions with the UFC and they’re definitely interested in her” Crouch said Monday in an interview with Top Turtle hosts “Gumby” Vreeland and Dave Tramonte. “[But] she has only had two MMA fights, so I think it would be premature”.

It may be premature to many, but it’s hard not to be thinking about the bright future of this jiu jitsu ace.
