Australian UFC fighter Casey O’Neill pulls out infamous Raygun celebration after beating Luana Santos

She’s just everywhere at the moment, isn’t she?

The infamous dance moves of Australian Olympic breaker Rachael ‘Raygun’ Gunn recently made their way onto America’s The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and now they’ve spread to UFC 305.

Australian fighter Casey O’Neill appeared emotional as she was announced as the winner of her women’s flyweight bout with Luana Santos by a unanimous decision on Sunday.

But just moments after her arm was lifted in the air, she took her celebration in a direction no one was expecting.

O’Neill dropped to the floor and imitated one of the moves Raygun has made popular for all the wrong reasons.

It’s hard to even describe the move without butchering the English language, but the Aussie fighter followed it up by getting back to her feet and doing Raygun’s kangaroo hop.

She didn’t go as far as to put ‘the sprinkler’ move on show, as Raygun did, but it was an amusing homage nonetheless.

Raygun became an instant viral sensation after her Olympic performance, for which she earned zero points in any of her round-robin battles.
