UFC 331 video: Casey O'Neill pulls off incredibly slick armbar
Casey O'Neill wowed with an incredible armbar on the UFC 331 prelims.
On the preliminary card of UFC 331, UFC fighter Casey O'Neill stunned her opponent Eduarda Moura with a spectacular armbar submission in just three minutes and twenty-two seconds of the first round. The women's flyweight clash occurred at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
Moura, who was victorious in her previous match, immediately took O'Neill down to the ground after an early exchange. O'Neill, despite the disadvantage, managed to extricate herself from an anaconda choke and endured some awkward positions on the mat. However, she then executed an utterly flawless sequence that saw her elevate Moura into the air and lock in the armbar as she descended. Moura was forced to tap out in immediate response.
In her post-fight interview, O'Neill expressed that the sequence required substantial practice in the gym, but pulling it off in a live bout was a remarkable achievement. She also utilized her microphone time to challenge her fellow competitor Maycee Barber. O'Neill's record now stands at three wins, including victories over Luana Santos and Gabriella Fernandes.
Moura, on the other hand, suffered her third career defeat, including her second straight loss, after initially winning a match against upcoming title contender Wang Cong.
