UFC 197 walkout music
As always, the UFC licensed a song or songs for each fighter to walk out to. Some of the choices were awesome. Some of them were hard to understand. None of them was Prince.
UFC 197 took place Saturday, April 23rd, in Las Vegas, Nevada and was headlined by a lightheavyweight bout between Jon Jones and Ovince Saint Preux. As always, the UFC licensed a song or songs for each fighter to walk out to. Some of the choices were awesome. Some of them were hard to understand. None of them was Prince, which is a little hard to understand, but maybe walking out to a guy who died this week wouldn’t create the right mood.
