Everybody knows that fighters have music playing when they make their walk to the Octagon.

Some fighters use the music to get amped up for the battle they're about to have. Others use the music as a chance to be funny, like Dave Herman or Tom Lawlor like to do.

Some simply use the music as an intimidation factor, because it has become synonymous with them, like Anderson Silva walking out to "Ain't No Sunshine."

If every fighter wanted to be funny, ironic or punny, here's 25 UFC fighters and the entrance songs they could use.

Shoutout to Andrew Vlasak for the help.

Dominick Cruz- I Like to Move It

Get it? Because he's constantly moving!

Frankie Edgar- Tubthumping

To be honest, I didn't know the name of this song, so I had to Google the main lyrics that made me think of this for Edgar.

"I get knocked down, but I get up again."

Let's hope he doesn't pull that again on Saturday when he faces Benson Henderson in UFC 144.

Nick Diaz- Because I Got High


NSFW

I really shouldn't have to explain this one...at all.

Chris Leben- Hit Me with Your Best Shot

Chris Leben is like a zombie when he fights.

He seems to fight better after being punched in the face—a lot—and nearly knocked out. Hit him with your best shot, and hope that he goes down.

If he doesn't, you're in trouble.

Anderson Silva- U Can't Touch This

Remember Silva's fight against Forrest Griffin?

I do believe that speaks for itself.

Ryan Bader- Imperial March

For those who are not immediately sure why Ryan Bader has music from Star Wars chosen as his walk out music, think about the name "Bader."

Does it sound like anything?

When you say his nickname is "Darth," it just gives it away.

Jon Jones- I'm Awesome


NSFW

Let me repeat, not safe for work.

But the title should speak for itself. The UFC light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones, is 15-1 in his career, and hasn't been in trouble once in his career.

He's awesome.

Frank Mir- Break Stuff


NSFW

As the only man to break two limbs in the Octagon, Frank Mir should walk out to "Break Stuff."

He currently has the arms of Minotauro Nogueira and Tim Sylvia on his mantle.

Junior Dos Santos- Here Comes the Boom

With 14 wins, and 11 by some form of striking stoppage, be ready for the boom when you fight Junior dos Santos.

Georges St-Pierre- Safety Dance

Because he always fights safe!

Benson Henderson- Smooth

It's his nickname! It's also a pretty sick song.

Joe Lauzon- White and Nerdy

Joe Lauzon is a self proclaimed "web nerd," so this one fits.

Brian Stann- Born in the USA

Obviously, this song could be for any fighter born in the United States, but as a former Marine Lieutenant, Stann fits the bill better than most.

Roy Nelson- Sexy and I Know It

Obviously.

Urijah Faber- California Gurls

My first choice for Faber was "California Love" by 2Pac.

Then I realized that he already walks out to that. So this one instead!

Jon Fitch- Rock a Bye Baby

Because he (a) puts people to sleep, and (b) because he went to sleep in his last fight!

Donald Cerrone- Spoilin' for a Fight

Donald Cerrone will fight anyone, anywhere, at anytime.

He wants to go down to 145 to fight someone below him on the totem pole.

He wanted to go way down the ladder at 155 to fight Cole Miller.

He doesn't care about titles. He just wants to fight.

Diego Sanchez- Crazy

Remember his most recent walk out?

Holding the cross at Jake Ellenberger?

Exactly.

Alistair Overeem- I Just Can't Wait to Be King

If Alistair Overeem beats Junior dos Santos, he will be the K-1 heavyweight kickboxing champion, the former DREAM heavyweight champion, the former Strikeforce heavyweight champion, and the UFC heavyweight champion.

He will be the baddest man on the planet, bar none. He'll be the combat sports king.

Terry Etim- Free Fallin'

Listen to that song.

Put on and watch this video at the same time and kill the audio.

If you time it right, it will be fantastic.

Rashad Evans- Sharp Dressed Man

Even if you don't like him, you gotta admit that Rashad has swag.

Wanderlei Silva- Enter Sandman

If Wanderlei Silva smells blood, he's going in for the finish.

He's one of the best closers in MMA. You can't escape the fury of the Axe Murderer.

Rampage Jackson- Unchained

If you let Rampage out of his chains, you'd better be prepared to handle everything he's going to throw at you.

Lyoto Machida- Strange Brew

He drinks his own pee.

Chael Sonnen- Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta


NSFW

"The Gangster From Oregon," Chael P. Sonnen.

UFC middleweight champion, undefeated and undisputed—according to him.
