Asplund lost 250Ibs
THE Conor McGregor strut, Alex Pereira’s archer, Justin Gaethje flipping off the top of the cage and Nate Diaz's double bicep pose are all iconic post-fight celebrations.
But larger-than-life character Steven Asplund may have topped the lot after jiggling his moobs to mark his successful UFC debut in Las Vegas.
The act was more than a funny viral moment, instead it was about owning and embracing his own weight-loss journey that has seen him drop more than 250lbs to realise his MMA dreams.
