    That would be my choice aswell. I imagine it would work brilliantly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,497 ✭✭✭✭Dragan


    Well, whenever i was in a position to need music it was always "Why Can't We Be Friends"..... can't see it changing in the unlikely event i end up fighting again.

    Hmmm....not that many UFC fighters in Ireland right now! The only recent signing i can think of outside of the North is Sammy and the Dog is far from Irish!!! ( not sure where he is living right now! )

    Unless you just meant MMA fighter?

    If you give me the cats name i can look at his fight style and come up with something that might actually suit HIM?

    Also, my advice would be something that he will enjoy listening to on the way to the ring, but is not too ego driven.

    One of my most memorable fight moments was a guy coming out to "Mama Said Knock You Out" and making a big show of it, only to eat canvas in the second round!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,122 ✭✭✭LadyJ


    Hot Hot Heat "Bandages"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 871 ✭✭✭gerTheGreat


    I think I would use the requiem for a dream theme tune.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 474 ✭✭john concannon


    Salmon Dance by The Chemical Brothers.Just the ridiculous music you need to piss off your opponent and have him beat the sh1t out of ya.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 942 ✭✭✭Bodhidharma


    Most frightening entrance ever was when Mike Tyson fought Julius Francis (anyone remember him?). Anyway the music was . . . the doomsday siren. Ha ha ha.

    I felt so sorry for Francis. He looked like he was about to be executed. Which he was.

    So yeah, Doomsday siren for me. Forget that music malarky.

    Time 4 Some Aksion - Redman

    (P.S. that is not a typo ;))


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,136 ✭✭✭JohnnyChimpo


    You're Beautiful- James Blunt guaranteed to mind**** your opponent.

    semi-serious answer: Sugar-Coated Sour by the Dillinger Escape Plan, but youd need to run in during the first 3 seconds of drums and deliver the first punch when the guitars come in. the combination of punch and incredible music should cause spontaneous head explosion or your money back

    I think I would use the requiem for a dream theme tune.
    That is what Anthony Hardunk came out to at the UFC in Newcastle last month, and he knocked his opponent out in fifteen seconds. Go figure.

    It would have to be AC/DC for me. Maybe Whole Lotta Rosie? I might also use the 60s Batman theme.

    Yeah but one of the soap-opera actors... sorry... wrestlers already used that.

    Some loud classical piece with lots of percussion would be worth a go. Probably best to stay away from Wagner unless your a six-foot blonde guy though.

    It's a hard one, k, for the exhibition (minor) fights it'd be the flash gordon theme - just because. For the title fights and intimidation effect:
