UFC fighter Casey O’Neill is shouting out Olympian Rachael “Raygun” Gunn — after a UFC 305 victory she busted out the Aussie’s breakdance … however it was far more mocking than tribute.
Casey defeated Luana Santos by a unanimous determination at UFC 305, which was held in Perth, Australia — so, naturally, the Aussie fighter needed to have fun with an impersonation of her countrywoman … AKA essentially the most meme’d athlete of the Paris Olympics.

She fell to the mat, laid on her aspect and began doing Raygun’s writhing transfer … and even threw in her notorious kangaroo hop. Casey’s model was hilarious, for certain, however solely as a result of she was NOT competing within the Olympics when she did it.
Casey gave her model of the routine a ten, and later joked, “think if they do bring [breaking] back for 2028 I might need to take an MMA hiatus and go get a gold medal.”

Whereas Raygun’s turn out to be a viral sensation, all of the Web mocking is attending to her. Late final week she referred to as it “pretty devastating,” and requested the trolls to cease harassing her and her household and associates.
As for Casey’s Olympic desires … sorry, the IOC’s already stated breakdancing will not be an occasion when the 2028 Olympics go off in Los Angeles.
