Well, let me tell ya, if ya been watchin’ UFC for a while, you probably know that them fighters ain’t just walkin’ into that ring, they’re makin’ a whole show of it. They got them walkout songs, and oh boy, each one tells a story ’bout the fighter, their mood, or even where they come from. Now, you might be wonderin’, what’s so special ’bout these walkout songs at UFC 300? Well, lemme give ya a rundown, like I seen it with my own eyes.
First off, let’s talk about Israel Adesanya. That boy, he got his walkout game down to an art. His song, ‘Hello Zepp,’ well, it’s the theme song from that creepy horror movie Saw. You know, that kind of spooky, eerie tune. And I reckon it makes sense for a fighter like Adesanya—he’s calm, collected, but when it’s fight time, he’s all business. He says that song brings a little extra something to the table, like a mental edge, ya know? Kinda gets the crowd on edge too, as they all wait for him to make his move.
Now, Justin Gaethje—he’s a wild one, but you wouldn’t know it by his walkout song. He chose a neo-reggae jam called ‘Fallen Kings’ by Tribal Seeds. Now, don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t expect no crazy hard rock or rap from him, but this song here, it’s got that slow, steady beat. You’d think it’s the kind of song for relaxin’, but for Gaethje, it’s just the opposite. See, the man, he likes to keep calm and stay focused before he starts throwin’ fists. It’s a way of calming the nerves, a way to keep himself cool before he gets into the ring.
Then there’s Max Holloway. Now, that boy, he’s from Hawaii, and he ain’t shy about showin’ it. His walkout song is ‘Hawaiian Kickboxer’ by Moke Boy, and it gets the crowd goin’ every time. The rhythm of that song—well, it matches his style: fast, energetic, and full of life. But the thing I like most is how he mixes it up with different tracks. He’s always got something fresh in the mix, but that ‘Hawaiian Kickboxer’ always brings it back to where he’s from, no matter what.
But let’s not forget, UFC 300 has seen a lot of other fighters walkin’ out to some wild tunes. Some of them choose songs that really pump ’em up, get their blood flowin’. Others pick songs to get their head in the right place. Now, everyone’s got their own style, but when you get to UFC 300, you better believe that walkout music is more than just noise. It’s a statement.
Take a minute to think about it—if you were walkin’ into the octagon, what song would ya choose? Would ya pick somethin’ loud and fast to get that adrenaline rush? Or would ya go for somethin’ chill, to keep your mind clear and focused? It’s funny how a song can change everything. It’s like when you hear a song from your past, and suddenly you’re flooded with memories. Well, UFC fighters use their walkout music like that. It’s a part of their ritual, a part of their mindset.
But there’s more to it than just the music itself. The fans, they play a big part too. When a fighter walks out to a song, the crowd reacts. They cheer, they yell, they even sing along sometimes. It gets the energy up in the arena, and that can make all the difference when the fight starts. Ya gotta love that vibe, the connection between the fighter and the fans through that one song.
So, if you’re wonderin’, what makes a great walkout song for UFC 300? Well, it’s gotta have somethin’ that gets ya ready for battle. It don’t matter if it’s a fast beat or a slow groove. What matters is how it makes the fighter feel. Some like it loud and rowdy, others like it smooth and steady, but they all got one thing in common—they’re all ready to fight.
As for me, I reckon if I was in the ring (though don’t think I ever will be, mind ya), I’d pick a good ol’ rock ‘n roll song. Somethin’ that gets the heart pumpin’ and the feet movin’. But, like I said, it’s all ‘bout what gets ya in the zone. So next time you watch UFC 300, pay attention to them walkout songs, ’cause they ain’t just for show—they’re part of the fighter’s journey.
