UFC Fighter Casey O’Neill he’s screaming Olympian Rachael “Raygun” Gunn — after his UFC 305 win he brought up Australian breakdancing… but it was more of a joke than a tribute.
Casey defeated Luana Santos by unanimous decision at UFC 305 in Perth, Australia. So, naturally, the Aussie fighter had to celebrate by mimicking her compatriot… the most meme-filled athlete of the Paris Olympics.

He hit the mat, lay on his side, and started doing the Raygun move… and added his infamous kangaroo jump to the mix. Casey’s version was hilarious, sure, but only because he was NOT competing in the Olympics when he did it.
Casey gave his version of the routine a 10, and later joked, “Imagine if they really bring [breaking] “I’ll be back in 2028, maybe I need to take a break from MMA and go win a gold medal.”

As Raygun has become a viral sensation, all the internet mockery is getting to her. Late last week she called it “pretty devastating” and asked trolls to stop bothering her and his family and friends.
As for Casey’s Olympic dreams… sorry, but the IOC has already said that breakdancing will not be a sporting event when the 2028 Olympics are held in Los Angeles.
