Dustin Poirier may have technically defeated Conor McGregor at UFC 264, but the real champion of the star-studded spectacle — at least in terms of potential to go viral — was undoubtedly Jared Leto’s whimsical wardrobe choice.

Dozens of celebrities flocked to Las Vegas to watch the fight ringside, including Justin Bieber, Hailey Bieber, Sia and Addison Rae, plus everyone’s favourite couples: Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker, and Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly.

But Jared Leto triumphed in terms of most memorable ensemble. Indeed, the 30 Seconds to Mars frontman donned an especially eccentric ensemble to the fight, sporting slicked back hair, a very deep V-cut (and discreetly floral) blouse, lengthy beaded necklace, bright blue neck scarf and oversized sunglasses.

And the internet can’t stop talking — or making memes — about the actor’s ringside accoutrements.

One Twitter user quipped that Leto’s look seemed...familiar.

While another noted the similarities between Leto and sitcom Three’s Company landlord.

Some Twitter users applauded Leto’s bold decision.

Others drew parallels to cult classic, The Boondock Saints.

Some — to Fred a la Scooby Doo. (Honestly cult classic, really.)

Speaking of Scooby Doo...

Some addressed Leto’s slight “Karen” vibes.

While others noted how natural he’d look working a bodega at the mall.

We love the versatility. Thank you, Jared , for sharing this look with the world.

Now go forth and star in a Karl Lagerfeld biopoc.
