I love music. Wanna fight about it? Good, I love cage fighting too.

 

I’m a lanky 6-footer who will throw you into omo, gogo and locoplatas from the rubber guard faster than you can say Vale Tudo.

 

Rarely do I get to enjoy my two true loves of music and mixed martial arts at the same time. When I do it is usually during a Ring Walk – where a fighter leaves the locker room for the cage and walks in as intimidating fashion as possible, to the song of his choice.

 

Most of these meat heads walk out to Drowning Pool’s “Bodies” or some mid-90’s Rage Against the Machine bombast.

 

My fave fighter of all time, Dangerous Dan Henderson, was guilty of the latter in his 2007 ring walk vs. Rampage Jackson.

 

Though the 37-year-old Hendo redeemed himself ten-fold last week in his ring walk vs. Anderson Silva.

 

He may have lost both fights, but he has established his place atop of ring walk immortality with this dusky jewel.

 

Never before had I enjoyed a ring walk more than the fight following it.

 

You’d have a better chance of dodging a Silva flying knee than seeing this song coming, limp-wristed hipster.
