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."

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."

He tried to feed a bus a carrot.
Chael Sonnen makes fun of the Brazillian Nogueira brothers. Sonnen claims the Nogiera brothers, new to America, had never seen a bus before and thought it was a horse, and thus tried to feed a carrot. The story has remained a favorite in MMA fandom.
"I was in Las Vegas when the Nogueira brothers first touched down in America. There was a bus that pulled up to a red light and Little Nog tried to feed it a carrot while Big Nog was petting it. He thought it was a horse. This really happened." - Chael Sonnen

Joe Rogan vs Ice Spill
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."

Pride Month
June is Pride Month, where MMA fans celebrate Pride Fighting Championships, a Japanese mixed martial arts promotion that operated for ten years, from 1997 to 2007. Pride was home to some of the most famous fighters of that era, including Mirko Cro Cop, Rampage Jackson and Wanderlei Silva. The PRIDE ruleset was also more permissive than UFC MMA, permitting soccer kicks, stomps and knees to downed opponents and body slams directly in the head ("spiking").
209
209 is the telephone area code for Stockton, California, home of UFC fighters Nate and Nick Diaz. The brothers have expressed pride in being from Stockton and often yell "209!" at their opponents before and during fights.

Who da fook is that guy?
"Who da fook is that guy?" is a line Conor McGregor said at the press conference for UFC 205. He said after Jeremy Stephens interrupted him. "Who da fook is that guy?" can be used to belittle or dismiss someone comically.
Reporter: Conor, who do you think would give you the hardest fight out of anyone on stage? Jeremy Stephens: Right Here! The real hardest hitting 145 pounder. This guy TKOs people, when I knock people out they don't fucking move! Conor McGregor: Who da fook is that guy?
