MMA: 5 Fighters With the Best Taste in Walk-out Music

Whether its Lil Wayne or Bruce Springsteen, if you have watched or attended an MMA event you have probably heard an array of music genres. As corny as it sounds, what song a fighter comes out to can actually give a little insight into the kind of mentality they bring into the cage and who they are as a fighter.

Here are five fighters who have a pretty interesting ear when it comes to entrance music.

When you come out to Johnny Cash's "Rusty Cage" for an MMA fight you have got to be:

1. A tough and gritty, "grind it out" kind of fighter

2. Fighting in a cage

Sounds like the perfect song for Jon Fitch

Coming out to KRS-One's "Rapture's Delight" then Mobb Deep's "Shook Ones Part II" make for a pretty serious entrance. So Rashad Evans must have been delighted when he took the decision over Thiago Silva at UFC 108 and felt like he shook rival Quinton Jackson at UFC 114 after a rapper-like feud.

"Mayhem" almost always makes for an exciting fight, but coming out dancing to Lava Lava by Boys Noize surrounded by schoolgirls must be a fun way to enter the ring.

You would expect someone coming out to Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's "Hawaii 78" to at least a little pleasant, but B.J. Penn comes out looking like he'll be ripping heads off left and right. Yet you could not find a song more fitting for the proudest and most talented fighter to ever come out of Hawaii.

MANCHESTER, UNITED KINGDOM - APRIL 21: A pensive Mirko Cro Cop of Croatia walks to the octagon before fighting Gabriel Gonzaga of USA in a Heavyweight bout of the Ultimate Fighting Championship at the Manchester Evening News Arena on April 21, 2007 in Man

What makes Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic's entrance to "The Wild Boys" so great is how odd of a choice it is. The guy might literally be the world's most dangerous Duran Duran fan.
