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.
Anytime UFC heavyweight Derrick Lewis is on his back with an opponent on top of him, he is often able to just stand up with seeming ease. This has driven comments that he doesn't use or need any BJJ technique, he "just stands up."
Derrick Lewis (In a post fight interview on how he gets up from grappling exchanges): "Shit, I ain't all that technical and all, but shit, I'm getting up. Fuck it."

Between rounds of Melvin Guillard vs Ronys Torres at UFC 109, a bag of ice cubes broke inside the octagon spilling all over. Officials tried to hastily clean up the ice, but knocked over the collection bucket, re-spilling the ice several more times. Then they attempted to sweep the ice through the side fencing and nearly left ice in the cage before starting the next round. Joe Rogan was on commentary and hilariously made fun of the ice situation.
Joe Rogan: "Wow look at all the ice all over the octagon. Oh that's a problem, someone spilled ice in the octagon... (about the cleanup effort) they knocked the bucket over, three stooges, what are you freaks doing? Everybody's booing."

Conor McGregor: "Who the hell do you train with? I'd slap the hell off your whole team, including you and your big brother!" Nate Diaz: "Your playing touch-butt with that Dork in the park (with the pony tail). And I'm the one who ain't got no training partners?"
