Dern (15-5 MMA) and Ribas (13-6 MMA) had originally collided back in October of 2019, with Amanda emerging victorious by unanimous decision.

Mackenzie Dern entered tonight’s rematch looking to build off the momentum of her most recent victory over Loopy Godinez this past August. That win had snapped a two-fight losing skid for Dern, as she had previously suffered losses to Amanda Lemos and Jessica Andrade respectively.

Meanwhile, Amanda Ribas was looking to rebound this evening, this after suffering a unanimous decision loss to Rose Namajunas in her most previous effort last March. The 31-year-old had gone 2-3 over her past five Octagon appearances overall prior to tonight’s affair.

Tonight’s UFC Vegas 101 main event proved to be another solid back and forth affair. That is until Mackenzie Dern locked in a deep armbar in the third round which forced Amanda Ribas to tapout. The victory served as Dern’s second in a row and has her primed for a big fight next.
