Low-level MMA is a steady source of sporting absurdity. From competitors belly flopping after trying to kick off the cage to fighters tapping out because they're beating up their opponent too badly, cagefighting aficionados can often count on a regional show to provide something strange or odd.

Legacy Fighting Alliance 6 delivered on that as a bout between 2-0 super-prospect Mackenzie Dern and 1-0 fighter Katherine Roy produced one of the strangest techniques seen in recent MMA history. Check it out here:

What Roy's plan was for that is unclear, but it's a spitting image of the iconic scene from classic musical The Sound of Music:

In Roy's defense, that Zangief-style lariat actually came in the final seconds of the first round after a perfectly timed leg kick. Unfortunately, the fight ended with a cut-and-dry unanimous-decision loss with a highlight that will likely follow her around for the foreseeable future.
