An event security agent launched a female MMA fan into the void when she tried to invade the Octagon during the UFC 274 event that took place Saturday at the Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona.

The series of events was captured on video, which starts as one fight fan who is positioned near the barrier vaults over the railing and then charges down the runway — much to the delight of fellow fans surrounding the camera operator.

The woman gets all the way to the Octagon and even mounts the canvas but is shoved with ease by the security protecting the fence.

UFC security said the incident "was swiftly dealt with and she was ejected from the arena," according to MMA Fighting which says it spoke to an official.

The combat sports website said the woman, who remains unidentified, was seen by medical staff before being banished from the arena.

UFC 274 was a 14-bout card that generated many headlines for its finishes and results.

Charles Oliveira — who lost his UFC lightweight championship as he failed to make weight earlier in the week — defeated Justin Gaethje with a first-round rear-naked choke in the main event.

Carla Esparza edged Rose Namajunas to win the UFC women's strawweight title with a split decision.

Michael Chandler scored a brutal front kick finish as he rearranged Tony Ferguson's face with the technique.
