The ordering process for Ultimate Fighting Championship pay-per-views has changed: UFC 245 is only available on ESPN+ in the U.S.
Usman walked out to co-headline the event to Burna Boy’s “Another Story/Anybody” mash-up while rival Covington opted to go with “Medal,” the Kurt Angle theme song from Jim Johnston. Holloway went with a combo of Fabolous’ “B.O.M.B.S” and Moke Boy’s “Hawaiian Kickboxer” while Volkanovski came down to the Octagon to the “Game of Thrones” title theme, but the violin rock cover version by Jason Yang & Roger Lima. Nunes, meanwhile, strolled to the cage to Carrie Underwood and Ludacris’ “The Champion” and de Randamie walked to battle underneath Deetox & Lange Frans’ “Het Land Van.”
Other standout tracks of the event inside T-Mobile Arena were 2Pac’s masterful “California Love” (Urijah Faber); Coolio’s iconic “Gangsta’s Paradise” (Viviane Araujo); “Don’t Push Me” by 50 Cent (Geoff Neal); and Wu Tang Clan’s “Visionz” courtesy of Chase Hooper.
