Skinny White Boy with One-Punch Knockout Power


"Skinny White Boy with One-Punch Knockout Power" is a reference to UFC 135-pounder Sean O'malley. He is tall and lean for the division, but has some of the most devastating walk-off knockouts in UFC history.


Derp: "Why do people like O'malley so much?" Derp2: "Because he's a skinny white boy with one-punch knockout power. His fights are exciting - you never know when he's going to drop his opponent."

Letting Him Be A Warrior


When a MMA referee allows a fight to go on while one fighter is being beaten badly, fans say the ref is letting the fighter be a warrior. The idea is that although a fighter is being dominated they are fighting on, which makes them "a warrior", while many fans believe the ref should step in a stop the fight. The phrase originated referee Mario Yamasaki was asked about why it took so long for him to stop a one-sided beating between Valentina Shevchenko and Priscila Cachoeira, he said he was "letting her be a warrior."


Dude, the fight is a one-sided beating, the ref should stop the fight. No, he's just letting her be a warrior.

Pound For Pound


Pound for pound is a ranking used in MMA of who the better fighters are irrespective of their weight, i.e. adjusted to compensate for weight class. As these fighters do not compete directly, judging the best fighter pound for pound is subjective, and ratings vary. In the UFC, there are official pound-for-pound rankings although debate around them is fierce. Abbreviated as "P4P"


"Adesanya would beat Mighty Mouse, but only because he's bigger. Pound for pound, mighty mouse is a way better fighter."

Sea Level Cain


Sea Level Cain is Cain Velasquez at his best - at sea level. Cain Velasquez is known for having great cardio, but when he fought in Mexico City, which is at very high altitude, he gassed out early and lost to Fabricio Werdum. People think it must have been the altitude, so Sea Level Cain is born.
