UFC flyweight Casey O'Neill created a hilarious moment after her fight at UFC 305. The 26-year-old locked horns against Luana Santos in a flyweight clash in the prelims of the highly anticipated fight card.

The event was held on August 18 at the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia. The fight between O'Neill and Santos was a one-sided affair where 'King' outclassed her opponent for the majority of the 15-minute fight.

In the end, O'Neill got her hand raised via unanimous decision as the three judges scored the bout 30-27, 30-27, and 30-26 in the 26-year-old's favor.

After the fight, O'Neill uniquely celebrated her victory. She recreated Australian Olympics athlete Rachel 'Raygun' Gunn's viral breakdance moves that the latter performed recently at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Check out O'Neill's hilarious post-fight antics below:

Several MMA fans caught the reference to O'Neill's celebration and took to social media to share their thoughts on it.

One fan hailed O'Neill's post-fight celebration as a 'legendary tribute'.

"Legendary #Olympics 2024 tribute."

Another individual praised O'Neill's performance but shared that 'King's' dance moves were the best part of her entire fight.

"Casey had a great performance but this was the best part for sure."

According to one person, O'Neill would have been a better choice to represent Australia in breakdancing at the Paris Olympics than 'Raygun'.

"She would have represented the Aussies better at the Olympics in break dancing than what they got."

But not everyone was a fan of the 26-year-old's celebration at UFC 305. Some criticized O'Neill for her actions on Aug. 18.

"Boring."
"The celebration let alone a reason why women shouldn't be allowed to fight in the UFC."
