Alright so this UFC music hunt started ’cause I was watching Zhang Weili’s walkout last night – that Laughing in the Wind track blasted and damn near rattled my windows. Got me thinking: “What other bangers are fighters using NOW?”
My Messy Digging Process
First thing? Straight up Googled “popular ufc walkout songs 2025” like a total noob. Big mistake. Pages looked like they hadn’t been updated since McGregor wore shorts. Saw forum posts suggesting some Brazilian funk stuff, but half the links were dead ends. Felt like chasing ghosts.
Switched gears. Remembered that article about Chinese fighters using crazy viral hits. Pulled up fight archives instead. Spent like two hours skimming recent prelims and main cards, frantically Shazam-ing every time someone strutted to the cage. My phone must think I’ve got musical Tourette’s.
Almost gave up after getting trolled by some regional Mexican polka track (seriously, who walks out to that?!). Then I started noticing patterns:
- Laughing in the Wind is STILL the heavyweight champ for Chinese fighters – pure tradition now.
- New hip-hop tracks with those chest-thumping bass drops are everywhere.
- Weirdly, old-school nu-metal making a comeback? Heard three different fighters using early 2000s rage anthems.
The Actual Top 5 Right Now
Based on pure repeat appearances in recent months and crowd pop (my ears are still ringing):
- “Laughing in the Wind” (Traditional): Obvious pick! That gong hit? Chills. Zhang made this immortal. Still the king for hype.
- “Rumble Pack” by *: New track, sounds like transformers fighting. Heard it twice last PPV alone. That distorted drop makes people instinctively bob their heads.
- “Concrete Feet” – *: Pure aggression. Drum pattern feels like getting punched in the face. Perfect for heavyweight stomps to the cage.
- “Deadrise” (Pit Lord Remix): Dark, brooding electronic. Saw a Russian prospect use this – whole arena went quiet then EXPLODED. Psychological warfare.
- “Viral Chop” (Bai Rong): Okay, hear me out. Remember “Little Apple”? This is the new weirdly catchy viral hit fighters are using ironically… but it WORKED. Crowd went nuts singing along.
Final take? Finding current UFC walkout music is like panning for gold in a muddy river. You gotta wade through tons of garbage, fight dead links, and endure questionable remixes. But when you finally catch those hype tracks vibrating through your bones? Worth every damn second. Now excuse me while I blast “Viral Chop” way too loud – neighbors are gonna hate me.
