Dern Continues Dominance, Wins 55kg Gold At World Pro
Apr 25, 2016
Fresh off her explosive 14 second submission at Fight to Win Pro 4, Mackenzie Dern continues to assert herself as the premier female grappler in the World by winning her weight class at the 2016 Abu Dhabi World Professional Jiu-Jitsu Championships.
In what was one of the most exciting finals matches of the day the Gracie Humaita black belt faced Marina Riberio in the finals securing a 2-1 advantage victory despite a late surge by Riberio.
Immediately following the match I caught up with the extatic Dern to detail her win, the entire tournament and what's next!
Watch Mackenzie Dern vs. Marina Riberio here.
