Casey O’Neill Flips Fight With Unconventional Armbar at UFC 331

The leg-elevated reversal ended the bout in a single sequence and could push O’Neill into contention in the women’s flyweight ranks.

Overview

O’Neill defeated Eduarda Moura by submission (armbar) at 3:22 of Round 1 at UFC 331 on Saturday in Los Angeles.
Moura opened the fight with a big right that put O’Neill down and worked toward an anaconda choke before O’Neill escaped and reversed position.
From bottom full guard O’Neill used her legs to lift Moura into the air and transitioned into an armbar that forced an immediate tap.
The finish quickly circulated online and drew comparisons to Demetrious Johnson’s “Mighty Wiz Bar,” with outlets calling the sequence rare and technically notable.
The win moves O’Neill to 12-2 with a three-fight streak and back-to-back finishes, she called out top-10 Maycee Barber and now positions herself as an emerging contender as the flyweight division sorts ahead of UFC 332.
