Her English has come a long way. It's impressive how fast this native Brazilian picked up the language. She'll be speaking like a suburban Arizona woman in no time.
😅😅😅😅
Classic
🤘😂😂
On point 👌
hahahaha I thought the same thing. toooo funny
Her English is so good. I’m used to seeing her speak Portuguese so I never expected her English to be this good.
She's American
im dead💀😅
@@starlifeforce it’s a joke
these comments are so lame
@@starlifeforce So is Yoel Romero but his English is still weak😃
Can’t believe she’s improved her English this far. So proud of her
😂
The English language is not that difficult to learn. Now if it were German, Thai or Chinese that's another story.
@@AneudiD78 you don't know the back story
these comments are so lame
@@fsmfsm9941 cry
Such an inspiration. Seeing a girl from the mean streets in Brazil come so far and embrace learning English at this level just blows one’s mind.
Her first language is English. she is 100% American
@@RubenLiz7 your ticket is booked to sarcasm island
@@RubenLiz7 aint her dad a brazilian
@@canphiljeff her dad is brazilian. her stepmom and husband are brazilians. they probably speak portuguese at home. don't understand the hate. a lot of italian americans have accent. no one claims they are pretentious
@@algarcia7896 Al be quiet . She forgot how to speak English hahahH
I can't believe her English is so good! It must be hard to learn English after growing up in Phoenix Arizona!!
XD
Well English is second language there js
@@BoutThatAction Spanish is my first language I learned English around 4 I've been around Spanish speakers my whole life .... You don't forget how to speak English to this extent my guy
LMAO
@@deeprinse149 she didn't grow up in two different countries she was raised in Phoenix Arizona and she didn't just have a slight accent she literally said she need a translator.... Don't be gullible
Can't believe they didn't need to bring in a translator for her
these comments are so lame
@@fsmfsm9941 and posting this comment over and over every chance you get isn’t….
Why is everyone simping over Mackenzie “fake my accent” Dern when the official snack of the UFC is right in front of her
For real!
Megan is great!
Laura Sanko is better, imho.
The fake accent is as bad as the fake broken English speech patterns. Like she had a stroke.
Not to mention dern straight up looks cromagnon with her Geico caveman huge white teef
How come Megan didn’t ask her about how her American accent’s been coming along?
Why do you think
touche
She's a phony, that's why
these comments are so lame
Her English is improving. I am so happy for Dern.
Lolololol
Lmao
@Mezzy Mez lmaaaaao you missed the joke 😂 do some research.
@Mezzy Mez yeah sure🤡😂
@@rafacereceres1316 Everyone knows that but you're mad 😂
Her Arizona accent is so strong.
these comments are so lame
The mysterious MacKenzie Dern accent.... it has to be witnessed to be believed
I like the tan on her it's really "ACCENTS" the fact that she's from Phoenix Arizona
*You're A Real Champ If You Can Withstand 50 Mins Of Dern Talking In Her Fake Accent...*
🤣
I was thinking the same. She never sounded like that before 😂😂😂its weird...
these comments are so lame
@@fsmfsm9941 *Yet Here You Are Not Only Obsessed With Finding Them In The Comment Section But Also Replying To Them...*
Watching her slowly unlearn English is impressive.
“You know” 😂
10-8 Brazilian accent
“Try some trainings” like cmon Mackenzie😭
Right wtf 😭
@@Liam_T35 Yea..because MMA only has one kind of training. Not like there would be more than one training, right. lol You people are strange.
@@IHMadeThis no... because she pretends to not be born and raised in Arizona and pretends not to speak English for some odd reason.
@@UFC_Buffalo She doesn't do either of those things. Are we just at the point where people are being obtuse for the sake of the "joke?"
@@IHMadeThis she objectively has a fake accent and pretends to not be born and raised, thru high school lol, in Arizona....
She does her post fight interviews with a translator....
I’m only here to judge her “accent”…
It's why we're all here lol 😆
Love watching her get a fight to the ground & doing her thing. Doesn't miss a beat & always takes what is given to her in the moment.
Excelente atleta. BJJ afiado, muita coragem e perseverança. E para finalizar, ainda é mãe. Parabéns pela grande trajetória e legado! 🇧🇷🗽🇺🇸
Thank you for this interview! She has another fan! I love the stories about starting her daughter in training. Awesome competitor and mother. 😊
C'mon people lets show some Hespect
Compelling interview. Thanks
I will love to see her as a future champion! Best of luck Mackenzie!
50 minutes!? Shit I can't last that long
I didnt last a second. The whole fake accent act is so cringe I can't stand hearing her!!
Scissor me timbers...
BURH
What a great interview I did not know much about Dern definitely will be tuning into the fight Saturday
"you know, is good, you know, like dese things, you know, like training dese things, you know....you know?" - Dern
Born and brought up in phoenix Arizona
The ever changing accent of Mackenzie Dern. Sometimes its Portuguese, sometimes its American, sometimes its a mix, sometimes its not.
these comments are so lame
@@fsmfsm9941 lame enough for you to comment on them.....what's lame is a fake af person pretending to be someone they aren't. She's a Cali girl, pretending to be native Brazilian.
Why does she sounds Brazilian. Isn’t she from Phoenix AZ? 🤷🏽♂️.
Lmfao yeah
Think she lived in Brazil for like 10 years recently
@@user-tz8pf4pd4q nah
@@user-tz8pf4pd4q But why speak like English is your second language . Like she never spoke English. That’s wack
@@VikCalo If you're around Brazilian people, like you have been your whole life, you'll one day suddenly need an interpreter and sound like Wanderlei Silva. Apparently.
She makes quite a few great points. The only place that you will truly find "unconditional love" is from "direct" family members. Mom and Dad will always want the best for you. Cousins and Aunts will unfortunately just so happen to attempt to come back into your life for the money and attention. Many of them secretly hope that you do not surpass them in life, and then when you do, they just want to drain you of your positive life energy, fame, money, and any other thing that they still lack. It is so rare to find another genuine person. The are so many red flags to look out for during your come up. Just focus on yourself and only reward the truly loyal. Don't play yourself, and never let those closest to you try and play you. God Bless.
Let’s see these two in the octagon, grappling only.
Удачи в следующих боях , успехов и чемпионских поясов !!!!
Dad here with a three month old and I’m preparing to enter a camp and the guilt I have already with the training I do is always in my head. But I resonated with her and having to do things for you too. It’s hard and weird but necessary.
So many people have kids and have a hobby or work away for months at a time !
Don't do it bro, your gonna get smoked anyway
who asked?
Sssst crybaby
@@mhutch5082 that’s a bad reason not to fight.
38:00 🇧🇷 Best question ever 🎉 I’ve been always curious on her background history 😊
She can get it
Both can
F’ing a right
Megan 1st
Dern leveled up, she looks sharp and excited for her upcoming fight this week, she's naturally gorgeous, her smile is glamouros😍
4:38 _Is MACKENZIE And MEGAN !!🔥 🔥_
_w(°ｏ°)w_
....
_🇧🇷 🌠 🇺🇸_
Thank you.🤙🏼 Without the knowledge I might not have gone back!😉
She's on a lot of PEDs. The jaw line doesn't lie.
They should definitely fight each other in "ultimate surrender"
That's the only strap that matters in WMMA.
Such a tasteless disgusting comment that I wholeheartedly agree with.
I agree!!!
Brooooo.. 💀
@@michaelthomas8147 🤣
Wow, I'm watching this over the Premier League on a Saturday early afternoon. It must be LOVE 🥰
Before the UFC Mackenzie was American
THE MOST INSANE PSYCHOTIC ATHLETE ON EARTH
I back guys trust me I back- McKenzie Dern 2023
Talk about making a 360 and completely turning it around, Mackenzie as a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker, has excellent English now and barely has an accent.
I had no idea Megan was bilingual. Makes sense though seeing how many fighters speak Portuguese.
But Megan isn't a fighter tho
@@naturelove7621 wow that went great over your head.
@@keithrozeski8463 call me dumb I'm just lost
these comments are so lame
Does her husband know she’s bilingual ?
Great job Meagan Olivi!!
Wow straight from the favelas McKenzie dern😂😂
Born and grew up In Arizona
@@censoredfromtheinternet3110 tell that to her accent lol 😂
Megan Olivi needs an applause for how good she is
Yan xiaonao?? I’ll take Laura Sanko instead.
Men of culture, we have arrived 😤
😤
😤
So odd when I see Dern on IG I think to myself and say she's not bad looking but whenever you put her beside Megan 🤦🏻♂️ Nah bro just Nah
No ig filters
Can’t compare her to Megan not fair.
Your a duck.
Here for the accent….
The contrast between the way she says “definitely” & “more comfortable” at 0:13
Love Mackenzie and her story
Which version?
I just came here for the jokes on the accent 😅
Great fighter and great mind on fight game.
Mackenzie and her husband unfollowed each other on IG. Been wondering why lol
I love Mackenzie! I hope she becomes champion one day ♡
Lol do you understand the different levels of fighting? She is definitely not championship level
@@HD6SOCCER why did u get so triggered at somebody wishing the best for some one else? LMFAOOO
@@user-ne1tb2cm4d I hardly would call my response triggered but sure I’ll get triggered af about someone hoping an average fighter is champion
@@HD6SOCCER She will most likely get a title shot at some point. She is definitely one of the best in her division. Sorry you don’t like that.
@@HD6SOCCER She's championship level if she gets a single takedown. 🤷
Brazillian father...Brazilian step mom...bilingual household...Brazilian training partners...Brazillian husband...Brazilian BJJ competietion...back and forth to Brazil growing up and currently...
"I saw some interviews where she doesn't have a heavy accent so she is always faking an accent for marketing!!! She is faking! Where is her thick Arizona accent!??!?- Generic American in the comment section
🤣
relax white knight
Everything you said applies to me (except the husband lol) and I don't have an accent. Hers seems to be getting stronger too, it's very odd.
@@johannagel4520 Her accent leans towards who she is spending her time around. It is not odd. It is very common. It is why Ben Simmon's the NBA player has lost his Aussie accent in America but it returns when he is among other Aussies. This absurd idea that she is "faking" and accent is just silly and illogical.
@@IHMadeThis It's common in much milder forms. Hers is extreme, I've never heard anything like it and I grew up in a trilingual household in two different countries with a large extended family. I also didn't say she was "faking" it, so you either don't know how quotation marks work or you're replying to the wrong person. It's not fake, it's just a very odd psychological phenomenon.
Bruce: Fightiiiing!!! Out of Arizona, Brazil.
Are you a white male from America?
@@IHMadeThis Mackenzie is a white broad from Arizona, but appropriates Brazilian culture to the point of developing a fake accent.
@@UFC_Buffalo Brazillian father...Brazilian step mom...bilingual household...Brazilian training partners...Brazillian husband...Brazilian BJJ competietiors...back and forth to Brazil growing up and currently...
You people are just trolling at this point, right?
@@IHMadeThis she grew up in Suburban Arizona through high school. You're just a stan.
I love how consistently positive Mackenzie Dern is. I think she will win this. I think she gets Yan down and then it's finished. I hope she humbles herself and obsessively drills wrestling takedowns. Her Jiu-jitsu and Judo takedowns are working for her, but her lack of techniques from wrestling are holding her back at the highest level. She needs to drill thousands of double legs, thousands of high crotches, thousands of single legs etc.. She needs to become obsessed with wrestling, so she can use her Jiu-jitsu
Well said. All her opponents are aware of how dangerous her ground game is.
Do I need to turn on the subtitles?
Amazing watching from Afghanistan 🇦🇫✌❤
Hello Afghanistan
Everything good over there?
@@michaelthomas8147 no
This interview so dope! Boa Mackenzie
Love this girl, great lovable personality and and outstanding athlete w many awesome achievements before the UFC
how old are you i assume under 18 ?
I only love Mackenzie for her fighting skills👍

Why is the interviewer hotter than every female fighter tho? 🤣🤷🏻♂️
Because she doesn’t get punched in the face for a living 😭
@@vgbombay5435 if she did, she’d still be hotter tbh
Laura Sanko also 🔥🔥🔥
Megan shapiro?
@@vgbombay5435 BRUH
Calm down everyone!! Its not easy when English is your first and third language!
Her English has improved so much👌🏽
50 minutes? This could have been done in less than 5 minutes.
She is such an amazing woman... It was so sweet to hear about her history.
I love me some gabby Garcia. She is a phenomenal martial artist. Thank you for being phenomenal. You are a hero to us
mackenzie and megan are so beautiful
Wish the best to her.
She is gonna be a champ 2023
What a gem 🇨🇦👌🏼
“My time i was beating up on the lil boys” lollllll i love dern man i have loved her since she joined the ufc but im shocked she still has not fought the top yet and for the championship its crazy how long and slow they brought her along but maybe its best
the accent has changed again!
Love her!!!
I used to laugh at how her English regressed over the years but after learning to speak multiple languages myself including Portuguese, I understand. She spends all day around brazilian Portuguese speakers and she is fluent and uses it daily. Naturally this happens.
Once she talked about her family and speaking the language and how she felt about it, it makes kinda a bit of sense on how her accent is a bit wonky
She chooses to speak like that
@@wildberry752 highly doubt it
@@ciscogaspar07 she literally did their was a interview of her several years ago and she was intentionally speaking broken english
"YOU KNOW"
Holy gums Batman lol 😂
If you guys have never seen the fake accent videos about this girl you should! real voice it sounds like a teenage cheerleader from Beverly hills. This broken accent nonsense is a gift lol
Future Champion
Her accent STILL comes and goes along with the facial expressions. She def trying way to hard to sound Brazilian u know. No but fr she needs to jus stop just stop
YES
Pretty smiles.
47:00 A striker?! 😮
Future champ!
Dime body/ Charles Oliveira face
i can't unsee it 💀
@@SnowCrabLeg me ethier
amazing body/ Jocko Willink face.
So who we picking boys...
Megan or Mackenzie?
I’m going dern cos her body is firing❤
Derns favourite show is knight rider.
She so cute. That smile says it all
shes breathtaking
AY YO CAN WE GET SOME SUBTITLES UP IN HERE?
I am always speechless when Mackenzie fights. She is Bruce Lee with her skill set. I wish I was as good as makenzie Dern.
I’m just here to see if she has an accent this time.
You know
UFC is eager to promote her.
Waste of money.. 😂
That thumbnail is really not flattering for Mackenzie Dern.
Mr Ed grill
Her English has really improved in recent years. Good for her...
You know?
Reh Bhazilian/Pohtuguese is getting betteh n betteh with each of reh fights!
There's times McKenzie looks smoking hot but not now.
Dawg what lmfao. Dern is a smoke show
Having a baby can do that to women.
Not a tan guy myself
BUT iam an ass man all the way🍑
@@ep3578 sometimes
She's hot when she's over on the scale ⚖️
why is she still trying to act like she doesnt know an american accent wasnt she born and raised in arizona?
