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

It was super necessary
Jorge Masvidal answering a reporter's question about his two follow up punches after brutally ko’ing Ben Askren with a jumping knee. The punches were landed after the opponent was clearly knocked unconscious, much reminiscent of the flying bomb Dan Henderson landed on a stiffened Michael Bisping .

Number One Bullshit
Originally popularized by UFC fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov, "Number One Bullshit" is something he would say to express dislike, disdain or disapproval for a person or situation.
Khabib Nurmagomedov (on Conor McGregor getting a lightweight title shot before he did): "This is number one bullshit."

Swanging and Banging
A brawling fight exchange of heavy punches, but poor technique. Usually exciting for fans. May increase chances of a knockout.
Derrick Lewis (after a long hard win over Roy Nelson): "I don't care how tired I get, I'm just gonna keep on swangin and bangin."

Salon Quality Poirier
Early in Dustin Poirier's career his hair was in a buzzcut, but at some point he grew his hair a bit and added a little bit of style, saying that one advantage he has over his opponents is that his hair is "Salon Quality". UFC fans believe Poirier has performed better since receiving his new haircut, and have nicknamed the new iteration of Dustin "Salon Quality Poirier".
Dustin Poirier: "I'm a better boxer, I can scramble better, better Jui Jitsu, longer, faster, I can dance better, better looking, my hair is salon quality."
