UFC Fight Night 99 is filled with familiar fighters, some of whom have absolutely bizarre walkouts. This is where I, as MMASucka.com’s resident board-certified musicologist, jump in to help. Whether a track doesn’t fit the fighter’s vibe, or is just plain bad, the wrong walkout song can sink a fighter. So I’m here to offer alternatives for both the fighters and for your listening pleasure.
Ross Pearson
What he walked out to last: “Stole the Show” – Kygo ft. Parson James
What he should walk out to next: “England Belongs to Me” – Cock Sparrer
Let’s face it, “The Real Deal” Ross Pearson doesn’t look like the kind of guy who should be walking out to something that sounds like a male Adele singing over the love-child of modern Sting and 80s Peter Gabriel.
