The Walkmen: UFC Fight Night 144

The Ultimate Fighting Championship returned to Brazil on Saturday with an event loaded with local talent and a former world champion. As expected, the copious amount of music that the fighters used to stroll to the Octagon was as varied as they are.

Headliners Raphael Assuncao and Marlon Moraes duked it out in a pivotal bantamweight encounter, with each man vying for a shot at the reigning 135-pound king T.J. Dillashaw at some point. Moraes delighted the local fans when he walked out of the dressing room to “Pesadao” from Iza and his counterpart did the same with Tiago’s popular “Podo Vir.”

Other standout tracks of the night were the Suryoyo Football song (David Teymur); “Don’t Stop Me Now” by the mighty Queen -- though a live version with Adam Lambert as the vocalist -- thanks to Junior Albini; “Let Me Clear My Throat” by DJ Cool (Ricardo Ramos); and even though it’s long in the tooth and cliché, Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger” (Thiago Alves).
