Training Against Bears


Khabib Nurmagomedov literally wrestled with bears when he was young. Nurmagomedov grew up in Dagestan, where as a nine year old boy, his father led him out towards the edge of the forest, where a bear cub was chained to a nearby tree. His dad then turned on a handheld camera, pointed it at his son, and ordered him to the wrestle the animal. Khabib, even at that young age displayed technique and heart.

Red Panty Night


During the UFC "Go Big" press conference, when RDA and Cerrone were asked if they would fight Conor McGregor instead of each other, Conor retorts with "I change your bum life... it's a celebration... you call your wife, 'We're rich baby, break out the red panties...' It's red panty night when you fight me!" When other fighters take on Conor McGregor, it is usually a big earning opportunity for them, so "Red Panty Night" is considered a real thing. The phrase can be used in other contexts such as any time something really good happens, especially involving money.


1. Dude, I got a raise today, so looks like it's red panty night at my house tonight. 2. I won $100 dollars on my lottery ticket! Woohoo! Red Panty Night!

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."

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.
