If John Crouch’s voice was a bit hoarse Sunday morning, it’s because he used it a lot trying to get through to Mackenzie Dern – with varied luck. “I think I said ‘Circle left’ about 6,000 times,” The MMA Lab head coach told MMAjunkie Radio. Despite all of Crouch’s direction, left crosses from Ashley Yoder (5-4 MMA, 0-3 UFC) continued to tag his student, a famed jiu-jitsu player turned MMA fighter. It was Dern’s (6-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) octagon debut this past Saturday at UFC 222 and understandably, she was a bit eager to make a good impression.
