Goof
Dana White commonly calls people "Goof" and so the nickname has stuck to him. He is now known as "The Goof".
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.
Send Me Location
Khabib Nurmagomedov would commonly state he was not afraid of Conor McGregor (or other opponents) saying he would fight them anywhere, and they just need to send him the location and he will show up to fight.
Khabib Nurmagomedov: "If you wanna fight me please, just send me location. Send me location."
Khabib "Send Me Location"
Touch Butt In The Park
Conor McGregor posted videos of himself doing some atypical training in a park with his 'movement' coach Ido Portal. During a heated press conference for UFC 196, Nate Diaz made fun of this, coining a legendary phrase "Touch Butt In The Park"
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?"

Horsemeat
Alistair Overeem ate horsemeat as part of his diet while he was a UFC fighter. Fans speculate this is why Overeem had such a massive physique.
"I eat 6, 7, maybe 8 times a day. I like beef, beef is good for strength. Cow beef, horse beef, I like fish. Horse is a very good protein, better than beef." - Alistair Overeem

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."
Pound For Pound Explained
If he dies, he dies.
For situations when a fighter is losing very badly and appear to be taking damage with no chance of winning, and yet the referee does not stop the fight, the ref is assumed to be thinking "If he dies, he dies". Originally referring to referees Mario Yamasaki and Steve Mazzagati who are notorious for letting one-sided beatings go on too long.
