What was said
"“I didn't know that she had already planned it. She had bought the black belt like earlier in the week and they were going to give it to me um off of when anyway. So to get like the first ever Tomagi armbar in UFC history and then to get my black belt, that was pretty cool.”"
Casey O’Neill says her coaches had already planned to award her a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt after UFC 331, including buying the belt earlier in the week. She says she did not know when it would happen and also claims her armbar finish was the first Tomagi armbar in UFC history.
