The "Shadow Realm" is a place fighters go when they get knocked unconscious.
After defeating Conor McGregor at UFC 196, Nate Diaz, a betting underdog, said he was not surprised that he won. The exchange happened with Joe Rogan during Diaz's post fight octagon interview. "I'm not surprised Mother Fuckers!" has lived on as one of Diaz's many memorable quotes.
Joe Rogan: "Nate Diaz, you just shook up the world." Nate Diaz: "I'm not surprised Mother Fuckers!"
Nate Diaz | I'm not surprised motherfuckers !
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!

Bangkok Ready means to be good at Muay Thai. Bangkok Thailand is the home of the martial art Muay Thai (Thai Kickboxing), and some of the best fighters in the world. To be "Bangkok Ready" is to be at such a high level of Muay Thai that you could go to Bangkok and compete with the best in the world. The phrase was made popular when Eddie Bravo told a story to Joe Rogan about an MMA fighter Gerald Strebendt who knew BJJ but then tried to master Muay Thai.
Eddie Bravo (on why he though Gerald Strebendt should try to use rappling instead of striking): "Because 6 months (of Muay Thai training)... I know he thinks he's Bangkok ready, but that's (only) 6 months (of training)."
