Just Stand Up
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."

G.O.A.T.
"Greatest Of All Time" The GOAT is the best to ever do it. MMA fans debate over who is the GOAT. Common nominations include Jon Jones, Khabib Nurmagomedov and George St. Pierre. Fighters can also be a divisional GOAT, for example, Dominick Cruz is the men's bantamweight GOAT. Jokingly, Artem Lobov and other mediocre fighters are sometimes referred to as the GOAT.

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.
