William Congreve wrote in The Mourning Bride that “Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast.” Unfortunately Billy C. didn’t live in an age of UFC fighters, who jam to their favorite tunes to get pumped up en route to a cage of combat.
From Kid Rock to The Clash, the UFC entrance songs are as diverse and eclectic as the fighters themselves. So often following a live event the MMA message boards will light up with questions about a particular song that accompanied a fighter’s entrance.
When in doubt, Shazam! it.
A fighter’s choice in music is more often than not a matter of personal taste – unless of course you’re Rich Franklin or Dan Henderson. Neither “Ace” nor “Hollywood” had any say in their entrance music. UFC President Dana White was responsible for that.
So who has the best musical entrance? Again, it’s purely subjective. But it’s interesting to see how well fans know their favorite fighters. Below is a list of fighters as well as current or past entrance songs courtesy of The Canadian Press.
1. Rich Franklin – For Those About to Rock (AC/DC)
2. Dan Henderson – Lunatic Fringe (Red Rider)
3. Antonio Nogueira – Gimme Shelter (Rolling Stones)
4. Brock Lesnar – Shout at the Devil (Motley Crue)
5. Jason MacDonald – Turn the Page (Metallica)
6. Matt Hughes – Country Boy Can Survive (Hank Williams Jr.)
7. Houston Alexander – Bawitdaba (Kid Rock)
8. Gabriel Gonzaga – Mother (Danzig)
9. Forrest Griffin – I’m Shipping Up to Boston (Dropkick Murphys)
10. Stephan Bonner – Eminence Front (The Who)
11. Marcus Davis – Jump Around (House of Pain)
12. Randy Couture – Back in the Saddle (Aerosmith)
13. Georges St. Pierre – Sans Pression (Numero Uno)
14. Amir Sadollah – To Forgive But Not Forget (Outside)
15. Michael Bisping – Song 2 (Blur)
16. Tyson Griffin – Eye of the Tiger (Survivor)
17. Martin Kampmann – Ladies and Gentlemen (Saliva)
18. Chuck Liddell – Intro (DMX)
19. Thomas Egan – Patience (Damien Dempsey)
20. Dan Hardy – England Belongs to Me (Cock Sparrer)
Some interesting choices.
Sound off in the comments section on who gets the vote for best (or baddest) musical entrance. Or if you’re feeling creative, give us a song you think a fighter should have. Example: Forrest Griffin – “Cry Me A River” by Justin Timberlake for his post-fight breakdown at UFC 66.
Have at it.

Best songs one can enter to:
“Becoming the Bull” by Atreyu and
“You Wouldn’t Know” by HellYeah
Honorable Mention:
“How I Can Just Kill a Man” by Cypress Hill or cover By R.A.T.M.
Dan Hardy should come out to Pat Benetars ” hit me with your best shot” lol
Fedor’s song is legendary!
I like when BJ comes out to the Hawain music. Also Cro Cop and “Wildboys” is an infamous enterance as is Wandy to that Teckno song
Someone needs to go old school and come out to method man’s bring the Pain, like Tyson used to do.
Swick comes out to Tupac
Tito= Eminem
John – read the interview with Tito where he claims that Affliction is protection Fedor and that Fedor needs to get past AA before talking about facing him. I about died while reading it.
Guys, does anyone know who the artist and what the song title is for the opening credits of every UFC PPV? The one that ends with “Into Pieces!”?
stemm – face the pain
silva – sandstorm lol. prob the most assbackwards song i would put with him, but he pulls it off. i get so pumped everytime he comes out to that
Darude makes a lot of good music. Sandstorm is great for getting me fired up, its old, but its a classic.
“Step Up” by Drowning pool is one of the best entrance songs IMHO.
i cant believe no one mentioned akhiro gono?!? his entrances are the best of MMA hands down!
Thanks Rich!
i like bj’s hawiian music too but it was better at ufc63 when it started out as the hawiian song then turned into “crazy” by gnarls barkley.
here it is bj’s entrance at penn-hughes 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbdZc8VSw5A&feature=related
Namenot: Has TIto lost his mind? I just read it and I honestlyt cant believe that crap actually came out of his mouth. THanks for the heads up man! What a tool! lol
Diego Sanchez should come out to “Jesus love the little Children of the world”
Liddell comes out to a good one. The same one that Tyson used to come out to by DMX. how come nobody uses “fight music” by eminen???
Eminem is babysauce.
If I was a fighter, my entrance song would be “One Way Mule” by Silverchair. That’s a very fitting entrance song indeed!
Joe Daddy’s Karate kid is awesome too..
Rampage chanting of rampage gets me pumped too(not the one of his last fight but other fights)
Swick is good too with the Makaveli entrance..
I still think the french rap by GSP and Patrick Cote is the best.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFfmyXATvQw this would be the best walk out song never used
thats song sucked. I even like metal and that song sucked
Jon Fitch’s “Rusty Cage” from Jonny Cash is the best.
Why does nobody, especially a great submission fighter, use Stranglehold by The Nuge? Besides being one of the all-time great kickass rock songs, the lyrics are perfect. I got you in a stranglehold baby, and then I crushed your face. That just screams MMA to me.
I still think someone needs to come out to “Bang Your Head” by Quiet Riot, maybe Junie Browning. I think Chopin’s “Funeral March” would be a cool entrance song too.
I’d walk out to New Noise by Refused
The best entrance song by a mile is Forrest Griffins “Im shipping up 2 Boston”
Heath Herring’s Texan ass should come out 2 Pantera’s “walk” might hype him up 2 win plus they from texas 2
BJ Penn!! E ala E/ Hawaii 78 by Braddah IZ.
I like when bj came in to gnarles barkley!
I also think this is tainted ever since dana (on the video blog) said a guy couldn’t use a song!
yeah i think it was when he fought GSP or Hughes the second time, I forgot which one already. That was a crazy entrance.
Hughes originally wanted to use “A country boy will survive” but was told by Dana and the UFC that it is not an upbeat song, and that is all that could be used. So they gave him Kidrock’s American Bada$$ to come out to. Then after TUF 2, Hughes was allowed to use his chosen music, but it took him a long while.
My vote is Wandy, and Forrest
Kalib Starnes should have something by RUN DMC… haha
or better yet “I Ran (So Far Away)” by A Flock of Seagulls
good one!!!
“Beat It” – Michael Jackson – maybe a better exit song
Or the “Chariots of Fire” theme.
I’d come out to “Animaniacs”…cuz we’re crazy to the max!
hahaha!!
first post
liddell’s entrance song is awesome, brock lesnar came out to enter sandman when he fought couture and i def think he should make that his official song to walk out too
would think that rage against the machine would be sick to walk out to but no fighters really do
condit came out to r.a.t.m. against miura
Carlos Condit comes out to Rage quite a bit… Rage or Tool usually…
I would prefer if a guy like Anderson Silva come out to someting like “Peace By Peace” by Slayer but he is to mellow and laid back, maybe Clay Guida or Wandy someone intense!!!! I for one think entrance music should sound tough and intense, good Hardcore Rap or serious Heavy Metal. Matt Hughes should be forced to change his song lololol, I dont really care I just hate Country music lol!!!
I hate Hughes and I’m not a country fan, but I think his entrance song is awesome. It suits him and its also an awesome song.
that song is the greatest song ever sang :]
that is the worst entrance music ever and no wonder hughes gets manhandled coming out to that garbage.Country music has no business in ufc. Whats next? Rampage coming out to Boot Scootin Boogy.
lol, that gif just made my night.
Mine too! hahaha
GO TITO GO TITO GO TITO!!!
go tito chant=hilarious
Chuck’s entrance song is by far my favorite. Wandi’s gets me pumped as well and honarable mention to Leben, “picture me rollin”.
I’d have to disagree with Wandy’s song. IMO its one of the gayest songs out there. When I hear it I think of these loser kids I see at the mall saying, “Wheres my Exstacy and glow sticks?”
Thanks for that mexi… I hate techno, but that gets me fired up.
Wandy’s entrance song is awesome because it’s HIS. If Dean Lister came out to the same tune, it would be gay.
Truth.
Why doesn’t anyone use Headstrong by Trapt? I could see Chuck using it, but the one he has fits pretty well.
actually … the best is Tim ( the barbarian ) Boesch coming out 2 the theme music from ‘Conan the Destroyer ‘
For reals! I was cracking up when he debuted but then I ended up really liking Boesch!
Anyway, back to the topic – I think it would be really awesome if more mma fighters knew more about underground hip-hop. There are some great anthems there that get me pumped up in the gym. Such as:
Brother Ali – “champion”, “self-taught” or “bitchslap”
Glue – “haunt”
Sage Francis – “the buzzkill”
Apathy – “eastern philosophy” “science of the bumrush” or “here comes the gangster”
Supastition – “turn it up”
Blackalicious – “passion”
Mr. J Medeiros – “keep pace”
Dialated Peoples – “work the angles”
E&A – “man vs. ape”
GZA – “liquid swords”
I know not all of those are considered “underground” but good good hip-hop all the same. There’s waaaay to many to even list.
Here’s a few fighters that enter into good hip-hop:
Rashad Evans – KRS-1, immortal technique, method man
Mac Danzig – jedi mind tricks
Goran Relic (misspelled, i know) – jedi mind tricks
Nate Quarry – not sure, but sounded like some early 90’s east coast rap
I’ve seen Mayhem Miller come out to sage francis’ “Dance Monkey.” That was entertaining!
what immortal technique song did rashad come out to? since you mentioned it i remember that he came out to one but i can’t remember which one. immortal technique is awesome.
the song you are looking for is called “point of no return”
it’s the song he came out to before he KO’ed Chuck.
Apathy – Here comes the gangster is the best of those three IMO. I love apathy’s music though.
Some others I like and wish people would come out to:
Crime Mob – I’ll beat yo ass
50 Cent – Many Men
Three 6 Mafia – Weak ass bitch
My all time favorite entrance was Matt Hammill when he fought in the UK “BORN IN THE USA” it was the funniest shit ever.
Joe Riggs and Gleison Tibau both have come out to 50 Cent’s ‘Many Men”.
joe riggs walked out to “many men” when he fought mike swick at ufc60.
HAHA and that was awesome when matt came out to that song! did anyone else see the picture of him wearing that shirt afterward that said “boo all you want, i cant hear shit!” ??
AzCombat, I saw that shirt, it was hilarious. If I’m not mistaken it has a picture of a hand flipping the bird as well.
Anything by RA Rugged man, necro, ill bill, sabac, nas, royce 5′9, saigon, etc etc
More great choices. That’s what I’m talking about!
Good choices DirtyML….That gritty shit…I love it.
Necro / Ill Bill – The most sadistic!!
Saigon definately got some tunes to get me amped…very underrated lyricist.
specifically krs-one, ’step into a world’… rashad evans came out to it in ufc 96 — great song
Actually its ‘Conan the Barbarian’
The Man that steps out to RAGE will be one of my new favorite fighters.
Carlos Condit has been coming out to “Killing in the Name of” his last few fights if I remember right.
Hendo came out to RATM – Wake Up against Rampage I think.
Wanderlei Silva – Sandstorm by Darude
he has the most femine entrance music of all!
I want Tito Ortiz to come out to Boy George’s “Do you really want to hurt me”
Ummm…shouldn’t that be savage BEAST?!?! That T is right next to the E on the keyboard…lmao!!
I meant that R is right next to the E
Come on we all love a savage BREAST surely?!?
Uh, you should probably go back to school. Didn’t you take English Lit? It’s breast.
William Congreve, The Mourning Bride, 1697:
Music hath Charms to sooth a savage Breast,
To soften Rocks, or bend a knotted Oak.
I’ve read, that things inanimate have mov’d,
And, as with living Souls, have been inform’d,
By Magic Numbers and persuasive Sound.
What then am I? Am I more senseless grown
Than Trees, or Flint? O force of constant Woe!
‘Tis not in Harmony to calm my Griefs.
Anselmo sleeps, and is at Peace; last Night
The silent Tomb receiv’d the good Old King;
He and his Sorrows now are safely lodg’d
Within its cold, but hospitable Bosom.
Why am not I at Peace?
It’s commonly misquoted as “Beast”. War Literature!
Thanks for the literature lesson jeeves. I will now be heading to a different site.
Thanks
English flashbacks are killing me….
LOL
Wow, I just got owned by English. Great Post
whatever …it was funnier the way i said it
Herring should come out 2 ‘WALK’ by Pantera
Forrest Griffins tune is the best in this list though
Herring should walk out to Beck’s Loser… Fedor should walk out to “Walk” or any Rage.
Herring should come out to Loser by Beck… Fedor should come out to Pantera’s Walk or any Rage Against the Machine
Of all the fighters who could come out to loser you pick Herring?
Why not Akira Omura?
http://sherdog.com/fighter/Akira-Omura-22670
yeah dude when forest comes out to shipping out to boston it gets you pumped it suits him as well. my personal favorite is when rampage came out to cant be touched.
best entrance music ever
“why can’t we be friends”
Homer Simpson vs. Drederick Tatum
good call !!!! where’s Moe with the flying fan thing !
the best entrance song ever..regardless of real or tv fight..why can’t we be friends!!! hahaha
lol agreed BEST EVER
even though I dont think she is all that, “Fire Woman” would be cool for Cankles Carano.
cankles carano? you wouldn’t know what to do with her if she was right in front of you!!
I’d start with her huge tits and slowly work my way down!
I liked when Matt Hammill came out to “Born in the USA” when he fought Bisping in England. That was cool, even though he didn’t know it.
LOL!!!!
Is it right to laugh??
First comment to make me laugh in a while, thanks utaptout
It’s ok to laugh
even though he didnt know it! haha funny stuff there. he should just come out to some loud bass or something.
OMG! I laughed LOUD at work when I read this. I love Hammill but thats hilarious
RAGE would definately be cool .. ‘ killing in the name of ! ‘
Ifeel like punching people now
Know Your Enemy and Bulls on Parade would be awesome
Lee Murray: “End’s” by Everlast
Lee Murray: “Locked up” by Akon.
Josh Neer- “Drunk Driving” by Sublime
Ed Herman “Cool to Hate” by Offspring
Brandon Vera-Jay Z-you dont know, that was for the tim sylvia fight
Arlovski’s song that he had written by Icepick was a good one.
Wanderlei should be coming out to something nore hardcore than some stupid techno dance song.
The song Jardine came out to at UFC 84 was another good one.
jardine should come out to some korn. shoots and ladders
there was someone that posted a song of knock out from youtube how this ends. or something like that. that was a realy cool post. and a good song to walk out to.
he did come out to that song against forrest didnt he?
no he just came out to a song with bagpipes.
Yeah Onward to Victory suited him back then. If he’s to continue with the heavy stuff maybe Imperium by Machinehead but it’s probably too long.
Rampage- “Loser” by Beck
Matt Hughes- Any song from the “Brokeback Mountain” soundtrack.
I think Bader should come out to the Imperial March techno version by Aphex Twin. It’s way better than the crappy version he comes out too. I always thought that TNT by AC/DC would be an awesome come out song.
I love Rich’s song, BJ’s song, and Brock’s song.
Randy came out to Back n’ Black by ACDC when he faught gonzaga… so pretty much all these entrance songs are subjective to change
My award for best entrance song of the year goes to Mustafa Al-Turk – Dope Boys (The Game).. and the award for worst entrance song of the year goes to Lyoto Machida when he fought Tito, that song was totally gay… and the award for best entrance into the octagon goes hands down to Tito “the man” Ortiz!!
man screw the intro songs, that gif of Jacob is hiiiiiiiigh-sterical.
Rampage- “Drive” by The Cars
you know noramlly is dont call out bs when i see it on this site,but i gotta question. Mexi, why do you always have something negative to say about Rampage? did he beat you up or steal your girlfriend or something? Or is it he dusted everyone’s two favorite hero’s in Chuck and Wandi? just curious
No, he is just a non-repentive, self centered, scumbag hypocrite that hit a bunch of innocent people and that thinks he will get away with it by getting a bunch of religious tattoos and spewing religious rhetoric. Sorry for getting on your man crushes case. Any other questions, new guy?
Im not a “new guy” im just under a different screen name. correct me if im wrong but was’nt you recently released from jail for assaulting someone or something of that matter? and Page is a hypocrite?
im not a “new guy” just under a different screen name.correct me if im wrong but was’nt you recently released from jail for attacking someone and assault. And Rampage is a hypocrite?
trying to reply but Mania aint posting it
but you post that.
and that
im not a new guy just under a different screen name.correct me if im wrong but was’nt you recently released from jail for assaulting someone.But Rampage is a hypocrite?
wtf is wrong with this slow azz site.my GOD
What a cry baby this guy is. Anyway, I’ve explained this before, but since you bring it up, here is what happened: I punched a guy that, while in a drunken stupor, decided to run his mouth at my girlfriend, while we were attempting to eat dinner with my then 18 month old daughter, thinking she was someone else. After I explained to him he had the wrong person, he persisted almost bumping into my daughter. He walked off, still talking his shit, we paid, got up, I gave my girl the keys and told her to take my daughter to our car. I then walked over to the guy, gave him one shot, he fell, I jumped on him and gave him a couple more shots with my elbow, then I left. The police got my info from the credit card I used. I was called 2 days later and asked if I would turn myself in, which I did. I didn’t run from the cops. I didn’t hit an innocent person, and no I’m not sorry I beat him the way I did. The only thing I was sorry about was being away from my family. I plead to simple assault, a third degree misdemeanor.
So, new guy, if you can’t see the difference between my situation an Quintons, then you are just a fucking idiot.
actually they are about the same. the only difference is that you made the conscious decision to break the law and attack another person with the intent to cause harm. you were in your normal frame of mind at the time, so in other words, Mex, you are an emotional, irrational savage who hasn’t evolved past the days of having to argue using his fists. the dude walked away, you chose to pursue him. so i’d say you are more in the wrong.
Wow mex your so tuff hiting a drunk guy.
Not to mention it sounds like he sucker punched some drunk. Who was probably to drunk to realize it was a case of mistaken identity.
beat up a drunk guy.wow!!! i bet your parents are proud
It’s pretty laughable how you victimize the the guy that instigated the whole incident. But hey, thats your opinion. Frankly, I could care less what you guys think of me. If you would have allowed a guy to disrespect your family and let the guy be, then that would have been your choice.
Besides, the judge withheld adjudication on my conviction, which means it wont even be on my record.
The guy was also convicted with public intox and disorderly conduct. I guess that just added insult to injury. You can call me a hypocrite and make excuses for Quinton, a guy that created his own situation . Personally, I dont care.
just giving you a hard way to go Mexi. its all good. I prolly would have done to same thing.except i would of took his wallet and robbed him too.
Cool.
I don’t think you should have been written a ticket at all. Drunk out of control people end lives, it’s a proven fact. He needed to be taught a lesson.
maybe. but was probably to drunk to remember the lesson.
Anderson Silva comes out to Ain’t No Sunshine by DMX, which I find pretty badass.
i agree…hes got the best one….i thought mustapha al-turks entrance to ‘dope boys’ by the game ft travis barker was pretty sick too….and because im a tito fan…you gotta love the entrances with ‘Mosh’ by eminem
Forrest Griffin isn’t the best fighter, but he has the best song. Another great song I heard at a local fight was “Why can’t we be friends” Pretty funny.
when timmy fought nogueira he came out to brooks n dunn, hillbilly deluxe good song but not a fight song no wonder he sucks
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeCMagLx0w8
Calm like a Bomb by RAGE would also destroy
and “For Those About to Rock” is an excellent fighting entrance tune. mine would be Thunderstruck..when that guitar starts OH YEAH
whats rampage’s entrance song? along with cheick kongo and rashad evans? I’m thinkin of a few of the past fighters from the most recent card
Disturbed “Down with the sickness” would be cool
Tito Ortiz – Mosh by Eminem…a real good pump up tune. anyone else notice fighters with head phones in as they walk out? weird
One thats always bugged me as Ive heard it before but have no clue who it was, was Josh Koschecks entrance song??
Any ideas?
I’d try shazam but i’m sure the crowd together with Joe and Mike talking over it wouldn’t help me anyway.
Koscheck’s for his last couple of fights has been “higher ground” by the Red hot chilli peppers.Good choice
Thanks FK. Duh! I knew I’d heard it before…
Good tune indeed.
Koscheck as well as many other fighter songs here:
http://bumpyknuckle.com/theme-songs/
TITO ORTIZ definatley has the best entrance!
from his song MOSH, by Eminem to the two sided flag and his pre and after fight antics!
WAR TITO.
that being said i think “why can’t we be friends” and “Just Dance” would be pretty funny to come out to. Especially for a superintense always serious fighter.
QUESTION: why do some fighters ie Rich and Dan NOT able to choose their own!?
Agree completely. Tito’s entrance the best.
Matt Hughes not so much!
without a doubt.. always gets me pumped up!
lol yeah i’d love to see brock come out to just dance
someone should come out to Lady Gaga – Pokerface
I always thought it would be a good idea if you came out second,to just play the most boring song possible,then just listen a hype song on an I-pod or something.The reason behind it would be your opponent would be stuck in the ring trying to get hyped up and he would have to listen to some shit song lol
i’m pretty sure page did that against silva. i was so pumped when silva came out, then i was ready to call it a night when page came out. mind you, i guess it worked lol
Wanderlei –> Scream or Psychosocial from Slipknot.
what about ‘wild boys’ for Cro Cop?
thats why he gotknocked the fuck out.
Yeah because CroCop JUST started using that as his entrance music right???????????
Jesus some people.
Dave Kaplan’s entrance song is the sh!t…wish I knew the name of it.
mayhem miller – dance monkey by sage francis
Rogan said the name of the song and the artist, I don’t remember though, maybe by the Pretenders?
The Singing Bee Champion – Still cracks me up! I wish I can find an old episode of that show, like when he won the grand championship. I see him face and just laugh. I might piss myself watching him do karaoke on tv…
I can’t remember but I think it was Terry Martin that came out to Michael Jackson. Maybe it wasn’t the UFC but it was super gay.
He came out to Billie Jean at UFC 71
I would LOVE to see GSP come out to Tom Sawyer-Rush. That would be awesome.
wanderlei silva –> Scream and psychosocial from Slipknot….
Ilike Danzig but Gonzaga should have used Bringer of Death or BLACKACIDEVIL. Jens Pulver should come out to Dazig’s I’m Evil
The songs I’d like to see would be Bring the Pain by Method Man from the Tical album or How it ends by Devotchka, also made famous by the Gears of War 2 commercial.
how it ends thats it. are you the one who posted that great youtube video with the fighters getting ready then walking out then fighting it was great.
I like Wanderlei Silva with Sandstorm, James Irvin with Enter Sandman, and when Hamill came out to Born in the USA.
A great one would be Murder my Idol (that might not be the name) by Mushroomhead, especially for fights like Mir vs. Big Nog.
No love for the Macarena?
Penns is best, most original. ACDC users dii=ssapoint me with their lack of creativity. BJ BJ BJ!!!
When BJ comes out, he is representing not only himself, but all of Hawaii. It is the perfect paradox song for someone who is so intense as BJ.
Tenderness. Where is the tenderness?
You guys are missing the best entrance song of all time…written exclusively for the Pitbull…”Onward to Victory” by Icepick…side project of Hatebreed frontman, Jamey Jasta…it crushes all radio friendly entrance songs
I would use 2Pac ft Roy Jones Jr – Can’t Be Touched.
The best song to come out to would “New Noise” by Refused. The whole build up at the beginning is intense!
guida came out to that when he fought huerta. then huerta came out to victory. i love every second of that fight
Clay Guida has, How about Most Precious Blood “Shark Ethic” thats got a pretty intense build up
I think “Go To Sleep” by Eminem, Obie Trice and DMX would be an awesome song for any fighter to use.
Good call TT
Go to Sleep is bad ass…I think it would be a good pick for Rampage.
Was just thinking that as i was scrolling down. Theres a sick youtube mma highlight reel for someone using that song out there. Can’t remember who it is tho.
Also “get it on the floor” by DMX is pretty good.
I think Go To Sleep by Eminem is the best song for any striker
I like Kos and Stun Gun comming out to Higher Ground by the Chilly Peppers.
One of them should come out to the Stevie Wonder version next fight.
I remember before UFC 88 during Dana White’s video blog he was checking the fighters entrance music and didn’t approve of Stun Gun Kim’s Techno choice (I’m not sure what it was) so he had it changed to the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
DJ Sammy – Heaven! hahaha
Badr Hari coming out to Arretez (despo rutti)is one of the best entrances in the fighting game..
even though i hate the guy with a passion… best entrance song ever is “hillbilly deluxe, sweet pick up trucks” with tim silvia’s big dumb mongaloid ass walking down the aisle…
haha you said mongaloid ass
I’ve always thought “The Bleeding” by Five Finger Death Punch would be an awesome song to come out to…if it werent a song bitching about a woman. Its got an AWESOME melody. “Of Wolf and Man” by Metallica or “Hells Bells” by AC/DC would be pretty good too.
St Pierre should come out to ” I drove all night” by Celine Dion.
Come on?! Because he is French Canadian?
Maybe “I drove your Girl friend all night”
somebody needs to come out to “bodies” by drowning pool!
another good one is “on the eve of war” by jedi mind tricks and the GZA.
maybe wandi, since he has the most feminine entrance music of all ufc fighters!
What about fight music or whatever its called by Maraylin Manson. Note i am not a fan as i can’t spell his name or remember the song title.
Sick enterance tune tho.
This entrance gave a couple of guys goosebumps.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6KL1kV7yp4
As an MMA fan back in the day, this was a pretty cool entrance. It may be hard to admit that from the Tito all the haters.
that was freaking sick!….until the end when goldie starts talking like he’s black lmao
It’s kind of Pride style. Really cool over the top stuff.
Bonnar’s is pretty darn good, but no one beats Akihiro Gono’s entrance to DJ OZMA’s Age Age Every Knight, though it was a thousand times better in PRIDE with the dancers, so hilarious. Some of the K-1 guys from the last WGP had decent intro musics, a lot of techno stuff that really amps people up (especially Peter Aerts’). Marquardt and LE Banner I’ve seen enter to O Fortuna.
I just don’t understand the whimpy entrance songs some of these guys pick…I’d think that you’d need something to get mean to…maybe Cannibal Corpse “Stripped, Raped, and Strangled..” That would say it all.
Andrei Arlovski’s onward to victory by icepick.the singer from hatebreed,Jamie Jasta
welcome home by coheed and cambria
who was it that came out with the guys playing guitar for him i think the nightmare. and kenflo when he came out to fight sherk was great.
I’m Sorry Guys but the best song is Hed P.E SUFFA LISTEN TO THE WORDS
forrest should come out to lion hearted by subzero
mir’s entrance song is good i dont know why i’ve always liked it
I would like to see someone coming out to
In Flames – Only for the weak
Where’s Turbo and Ozone? Tito’s head’s in the way
Dropkick Murphys for Forrest… So fitting and gets you pumped up for a fight. UFC 72 in Ireland, such an amazing entrance!
anderson silva should come out to she’s a maniac by hall and oates while waving his arms in the air
when randy fought chuck for the third time he came out to thunderstruck-AC/DC that was sick
didn’t Faber come out to soul crusher in his last fight. great choice as well.
How is Sherk’s music not on there? Wait by Earshot with the jaws theme into? its the best walk in aside from Wandy coming in to sandstorm
Best song by far is AA’s Onward to Victory. Za Pitbull comes out to an acutal Pitbull. Can’t beat that…. unless your the Snowman who comes out to Imagine. I can’t believe that someone hasn’t brought that akward one. So my votes:
Imagine – Snowman
Onward to Victory – Pitbull
I’ve always thought “It’s Catching Up” by NoMeansNo would be a badass entrance song for anyone.
the song i personally would come out to is ONE by METALLICA tho… begining of that song with the war sounds in the back is NAILZ!
if i were a fighter i’d come out to
-Riot by Three Days Grace
-Bombshell by Powerman 5000
-Revenge by Bleeding Through
I thought Chris Leben coming out to God Save The Queen by The Sex Pistols was genius. It was such a good ‘fuck you’ to the british fans who were completely beside themselves for Bisping. And I was one of those fans! Im glad Bisping won but if it was based on entrances I would have given that to Leben
I’m probably gonna get a lot of crap for this one, but “Twinz” by Big Pun and Fat Joe would be a sick entrance song…and also anything from Young Jeezy.
I guess nobody here has seen the movie Breakin
Sucker’s break like Turbo and Ozone – Method Man
G-n-R Welcome to the jungle would be a good entrance song….Coma would be badass too.
Rich Franklin used Welcome to the Jungle for UFC 77. I liked it better than his AC/DC entrance
BloodDuster drink F**k Fight….
get on board
Check Kongo: Sefyu – Molotov 4
/end
I’m surprised forrest song “care bears” didn’t make that list.
Shitty list though, poor taste.
BJ Penn’s intro music when he fought Lyoto Machida should be worth a mention.

the still operaters lady here.. He told me about this thread and i couldnt help but chime in… that being said i think these following songs by atmosphere would be great to walk out to:
say hey there
national disgrace
lil man
smart went crazy
( i know its obvious im a big ATMOSPHERE fan… but i also love a little bloodshed when i can get it)these songs get me pissed… go ahead talk sh*#!;]
atmosphere’s
say hey there,and national disgrace
Thomas Egan has never fought in the UFC before
He will at UFC93. I think he’s the only Irish fighter on the card.
does any one know the song they play at the venues before the show goes live? its about 7/10 minutes long they play it along with a video on the big screens?
Baba O’Riley by the Who with the epic highlights video maybe?
I think whoever fought Frank Trigg In the UFC played Baba O’Riley by the Who..
Georges St. Pierre (54)
Matt Hughes (45/52)
Renato Verissimo (50)
Dennis Hallman (48)
Something is mentioned about it on TAGG radio’s 4/9 podcast
http://taggradio.com/index2.php?page=archives&display=734
It is a shitty list, the only decent song on there is “Gimme Shelter”
I think that Indestructable by Disturbed would be cool to walk out to.
Disrespect is a gang punk word. Respect has to be earned not given. Hip hop (at least the shit on the radio) sucks.
I didn’t read all of the posts, but I was wondering how many other people noticed that when you get the UFC DVD’s they change most of the entrance songs…They go with a rock beat and kind of leave it at that, I’m kind of thankful in the case of Matt Hughes, but I really liked Matt Serra’s entrance for UFC 83. I couldn’t hear it when I was there, but when I heard it online after I thought it was great.
Yeah it sucks. Suppose it’s expensive to get the rights.
I don’t really care for this music, but this is by far the best fighter entrance ever…………

I liked Bispings when he had London Calling by the clash. Don’t know why he changed it. Was awsome at the live events proper foot stomper.
DOWN-Bury Me In Smoke
Give it a listen
I think one of the baddest was definitely Tim Boetsch – He walked out to the “Conan the Barbarian” soundtrack.
does anybody know the song Miguel Torres used when he fought manny tapia???
Babalu pharoahe monche- simon says!
BJ has a cool intro song but the best ever, hands down was Rampage’s old entrance song in Pride FC.
Randy Couture Back in Black ACDC
Someone should come out to Prong’s song ‘Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck’
RAMPAGE JACKSON’s is the BADDEST by far…..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_6xJM__41k
Arlovsky’s Onward to Victory is the best
I also love Tout le monde debout from GSP, not listed here
Forrest Griffin – “Cry Cry Cry” by Johnny Cash for his post-fight breakdown at UFC 66.
Brock Lesnar – Where we did go right by Johnny Cash for his post-fight against Frank Mir.
Joe Rogan – BANG BANG – Ramstein
the best entrance songs are :
El Matador – vicentico : Roger Huerta
im on the rock – movado feat. Jay-Z : Quinton Jackson
Rusty Cage – Johnny Cash : John Fitch
