Sijara Eubanks had a moment earlier this year when she was close to headlining a UFC fight card which was promptly nixed to her displeasure – and then she went and did the unthinkable. She couldn’t even make weight.
Now Eubanks wants to make sure everyone knows her name and is calling out a lower division member ranked at 15 – Mackenzie Dern.
Now here’s where it gets interesting – even though you most likely can’t even remember Eubanks competing in bjj she once defeated Dern. A reference she reminded everyone of in her call out:
