Which songs will Bobby Green and Grant Dawson use for UFC Vegas 80?
Bobby Green took on UFC veteran Tony Ferguson at UFC 291 and submitted the lightweight great in a fight that was rather one-sided. Green used “Resume” by La Duce to walk out for his bout. He likes to mix it up when it comes to his entrance songs.
He used Tupac’s “Hit ’em Up” before his UFC Vegas 49 fight with Islam Makhachev. He also entered “What I Look Like” by Payroll Giovanni to defeat Nasrat Haqparast at UFC 271 in 2022. So, we can yet again expect a brand new song for his walkout before the fight against Dawson.
His opponent, Grant Dawson, has been consistently walking out to the same song for his fights. So, we can expect him to walk out to Jonathan Young’s cover of “Hellfire” from the Disney animated movie The Hunchback of Notre Dame at UFC Vegas 80 too.
Which songs will Joe Pyfer and Abdul Razak Alhassan use for UFC Vegas 80?
Joe Pyfer last took on Gerald Meerschaert at UFC 287 in April this year and walked out to the song “No Easy Way Out” by Robert Trapper. Before this, he secured a victory against Alen Amedovski in September of last year. For that particular fight, he entered “Last Breath” by Future.
Middleweight veteran Abdul Razak Alhassan took on Claudio Ribeiro earlier this year, and he walked out to the song “Kwaku the Traveler” by Black Sherif for that particular fight. For his fight against Joaquin Buckley, he took help from a Quran recitation by Abdul Rahman Mossad.
