Miesha Tate captured the UFC women’s bantamweight championship this weekend by submitting Holly Holm in a big fight that pulled a lot of press. But somehow, that moment wasn’t Tate’s biggest of the weekend. Rather, that honor goes to an Instagram video of a Las Vegas PD officer trying and failing to keep his eyes off her backside at the weigh-in.
The struggle is real. That clip went viral, gaining way more eyes than her impressive last minute defeat of Rousey-killer Holly Holm the next night. Tate obviously heard about the clip and rather than get mad, she’s played along. Here’s an Instagram she posted with the officer in question, Russel Mettke.
Mettke isn’t the first person to get caught on camera enjoying the view during UFC weigh-ins. Here’s a staffer at an event from last December getting an eye full as well, proving that no matter what your gender, it can be hard to keep from checking people out when they’re literally stripping down right in front of you.
