The viral craze has spread throughout social media in the last couple of weeks, especially stateside.

Professional athletes have gone mad for it and First Lady Michelle Obama even filmed one while awarding the NBA's Cleveland Cavaliers on their visit to the White House.

But the Octagon girls have topped even that.

Arianny Celeste, Brittney Palmer, Chrissy Blair, Vanessa Hanson and Ashley Piccone filmed themselves backstage at Madison Square Garden.

While the Notorious McGregor was busy knocking out Alvarez to become the first two-weight world champion in UFC, the five girls were taking on the challenge.

Wearing their trademark skimpy hot pants and bikini tops, the five girls are frozen while they go through their make up routines.

In the aftermath of his win, McGregor shocked fans by stating that he was going to be a father - and may quit the sport unless he is given a better share of money.

He said: "They've got to come talk to me now, no one's talked to me since the sale.

"Who owns the company now? Celebrities have shares in it now, who owns it and where's my share?

"You want me to stick around, let's talk.

"I want the ownership, I want what I deserve, I want what I've earned."
