Mackenzie Dern vs. Angela Hill Preview

Mackenzie Dern and Angela Hill kick off their 2023 campaigns with a highly anticipated main event clash that will provide valuable insights into their current positions within the strawweight division.

Dern, who began her career with an impressive streak of 11 wins in her first twelve bouts, has encountered some hurdles lately, losing two out of her last three fights while struggling to effectively implement her dynamic grappling style. Although she has shown improvement in her striking, the Brazilian jiu-jitsu legend undeniably excels when she can initiate grappling exchanges and clinches, showcasing exceptional control and a wide array of attacking options from various positions.

Hill arrives in Las Vegas aiming to build upon her victories over Loopy Godinez and Emily Ducote in the latter part of the previous year. Known as "Overkill," Hill consistently maintains her position in the rankings and poses a durable and dangerous challenge for anyone in the division. However, to keep the fight on the feet against Dern on Saturday, she will need to rely on her footwork and movement, utilizing her agility to avoid grappling exchanges.

This main event matchup between Dern and Hill is poised to provide crucial answers about each woman's current standing in the strawweight division, making it an eagerly anticipated showdown.
