MMA Fighter Mackenzie Dern Might Blow Up Bigger Than Ronda Rousey

If you haven’t heard the name Mackenzie Dern yet, prepare to become a big fan, as many people are saying she is going to be the next Ronda Rousey. One of her teammates even declared, “She will be bigger than Ronda Rousey.”

The 23-year-old is already a multiple-time jiu-jitsu world champion, and is currently the No. 1 ranked female jiu-jitsu practitioner. Dern only has one MMA bout on her resume, however — a victory over Kenia Rosas — but that will change soon. Let’s check out more of Dern thanks to her Instagram:

“Nada é o que parece ser. O mar de longe é azul, de perto é verde, por dentro, transparente. Aparentemente, tudo é diferente do que realmente é. Eis então o segredo para não julgar: em vez de olhar o mar de longe, mergulhe” -@liberdadepracabeca
