UFC commentator Chael Sonnen is calling out Mackenzie Dern for not pushing for a title shot after her recent win at UFC Fight Night 249. With her second consecutive victory, Dern improved her record to 16-5 MMA, 11-5 UFC, but Sonnen believes she should be more aggressive in pursuing a championship belt in the women's mixed martial arts division, citing her lack of awareness of the sport's competitive landscape and the importance of strategic career moves in the MMA world, including effective self-promotion and savvy fight negotiations.
