Does the UFC hate Mackenzie Dern?

I don't understand why they are feeding her to Amanda Lemos after she just got knocked out by Andrade. Lemos is the one other girl in the division likely to knock her out. I feel like she might retire after this
She's getting paid more than Cejudo's, Merab and Garry, so it's more of a love hate relationship

Just because the fans take everything personal and let their feels take over all the time doesn't mean the UFC is all up in their feels when they give a fighter a tough fight. It's just how the fight business works. Can't have equally matched match ups all the time.
 
Giving a girl that just came off getting knocked out a top 5 fight that probably gets her a title shot is definitely hating isn’t it, especially when dern is a grappler and lemos got held down for like 3 hours by weili
 
They don't hate her, they would love to have her as a champion but she hasn't shown the skillset to get on that level yet. They seem to have run out of patience with her though, it's sink or swim. She's had more than enough time to fix her game up & she looked absolutely awful in the Andrade fight.
 
Maybe this explains why they are feeding her to Lemos. They wanted a hot chick to be champion. Dern never evolved, so now they are feeding her to the wolves so they don't have to keep paying her.

Look at her face. Listen to her 'accent'.

Except Dern sucks at wrestling. Lemos is going to eat her alive in the striking and like Andrade has the power to knock her out.

Can't wrestle. Can't strike. Can't decide if she's from Arizona or Sao Paulo.
 
Wasn't Lemos a replacement fighter? Don't sell Dern short, she always breaks my heart, but she is a tough chick.

And eventually I will roll with her. That way, everyone in her family can beat the shit out of me. Almost rolled with her once, but she stopped taking challengers with two people in front of me. Shame too, it was pre-marriage and was on fire with triangles. Tapping the last four in this manner.
 
Yes, this is the biggest mismatch on the card. Lemos is going to beat the Brazilian accent out of Dern.
 
If she wants to maintain, and/or improve her rank. These are the girls you have to fight. No freebies here on out.
 
Lemos was outgrappled by Zhang and Andrade. Dern has a good chance.
