Several UFC fighters have admitted that they risk getting into the Octagon to provide for their families and kids. Many fans may remember how the noted UFC champ-champ forever, Amanda Nunes, brought her daughter into the UFC 289 Octagon to celebrate her victory over Irene Aldana in the last fight of her UFC career. Incidents like these showcase that UFC fighters aren’t an exception when it comes to parenting their kids. Well, the famed UFC strawweight, Mackenzie Dern, has also celebrated one of her victories in an Amanda Nunes-like manner.

After her UFC 273 victory over Tecia Torres, Dern brought her little daughter, Moa, into the Octagon to celebrate her victory. Well, there hasn’t been any shortage of discussion related to Dern’s personal life in the UFC community. However, after her heartwarming UFC 273 victory celebration with her daughter, several fans may be curious to know whether Moa is Dern’s only child or if she has other children. Let’s dig in to find out.

Is Moa Mackenzie Dern’s only child?

Mackenzie Dern’s UFC 273 victory stands as the only incident when she brought her daughter Moa into the UFC Octagon. After that, she achieved another victory but didn’t quite celebrate in a similar manner. If she ever does, Moa can be the only child to grace her side because Dern has no other children.

As already mentioned, Dern’s daughter is named Moa. As per several reports, she was born on June 9, 2019. Apart from her Octagon appearance, Dern’s little princess adorns several snaps on her Instagram profile as well, which currently boasts an insane 1.1 M followers.

Despite an awesome relationship with her daughter, UFC fans may be shocked to know that Dern’s married life was far from perfect. She divorced her then-husband, Wesley Santos, following multiple accusations. The divorce was a rather upsetting turn of rather public events.

It’s quite apparent now that her daughter and her UFC career are her two prime priorities at the moment. But will she be able to shine brighter in the Octagon with a victory in her upcoming fight? Dern has already faced a brutal knockout loss at UFC 295.

Dern and her toughest fight yet

At UFC 298, Dern will face off against #3 ranked strawweight in the division, Amanda Lemos at UFC 298. The fight comes after Dern was knocked out in the second round of UFC 295 by none other than former champ, Jessica Andrade. Now, she has much to bounce back from.

Mackenzie Dern may have earned a superb victory against Angela Hill earlier on. But it’s pertinent to note that Andrade was one of her biggest challenges in recent history and she wasn’t able to trump that. The fighter has had a few ups and downs in her professional and personal life.

But now, after a messy divorce and a loss, perhaps Dern is all set to get back up and put her gloves on. Her opponent, Lemos was originally slated to face Tatiana Suarez but she pulled out of the fight for reasons that are unclear still. As a replacement, Dern got the shot. If she wins, perhaps a title opportunity could be on her way. What are your thoughts?
