Use the Paste Option that says Keep Text Only. Or use Home tab | Paste | Paste Special and choose to paste "Unformatted Text."
If you are trying to reset formatting to that of the underlying style, select the text and press Ctrl+SpaceBar (clears font formatting not in style) and Ctrl+Q (clears paragraph formatting not in style).
