Why does boxing continue to captivate fans across the world? Simple. It’s rarely just about fists flying. At its core, it’s about rivalry, redemption, and the raw emotion that boils over when two fighters can’t even stand the sight of each other. That’s exactly the kind of grudge Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn share. And after years of verbal jabs and rising tension, they’ll finally settle the score in the ring.

On Saturday, April 26, the two meet in a non-title catchweight clash at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. And while the punches will fly, the event promises much more. Broadcast live on DAZN PPV, the card includes a host of exciting matchups. But one of the most entertaining parts for many fans, especially the casuals, remains the fighters’ walkouts. These ring entrances are more than just a show. The music blaring through the arena often reflects the fighter’s persona and mindset. It sets the tone for the night. So let’s dive into what Eubank Jr., Benn, and a couple of others have used in the past and what they might walk out to this weekend.

Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn walkout songs

Eubank Jr., who spent much of his youth in the U.S., has a strong appreciation for ’90s hip-hop, and it shows in his choice of entrance music. One of his go-to tracks is Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s ‘Still D.R.E.’ Undoubtedly, it’s a track with a pounding beat and serious swagger that remains iconic decades after its release.

Early in his career, Eubank Jr. walked out to late Tina Turner’s ‘Simply the Best.’ It was the same song his father, the legendary Chris Eubank Sr., famously used. That track not only became synonymous with the Eubank name but also earned his father the nickname ‘Simply the Best.’ Whether Eubank Jr. revives the legacy tune or sticks with Dr. Dre’s banger, expect his entrance to be loud, bold, and memorable.

Like Eubank Jr., Conor Benn also leans into 90s American hip-hop. One of his top picks is Tupac Shakur’s ‘All Eyez on Me.’ It’s a defiant, high-energy anthem that aligns perfectly with Benn’s aggressive style and larger-than-life ring presence.

Another strong contender is The Fugees’ ‘Ready or Not.’ A hauntingly melodic hip-hop classic from their 1996 album ‘The Score.’ The track, once used by wrestling legends Scott Hall and Kevin Nash in World Championship Wrestling (WCW), has become a signature sound for Benn. It is widely expected to play as he makes his entrance on Saturday night.

What is Liam Smith and Aaron McKenna’s walkout song?

Smith’s music taste is a bit more eclectic. He’s known to enjoy hip-hop, pop, and punk. His previous walkout songs have included Juice WRLD’s ‘All Girls Are the Same’ and Rachel Platten’s inspirational ‘Fight Song.’ Then, a TikTok video features a track from English singer Harry Styles.

But most memorably, for his first bout against Eubank Jr., Smith walked out to ‘This Place’ by James Webster. It’s an indie/alternative track that underscored his no-nonsense approach.

The rising Irish middleweight contender doesn’t have a widely known musical profile. But one thing is clear: McKenna is proud of his heritage. In one notable fight, he entered the ring to ‘The Foggy Dew,’ a haunting Irish ballad made famous by The Chieftains and the late Sinead O’Connor. The song, rich in warrior spirit, reflects McKenna’s roots and mindset.

With music this iconic, it’s no surprise fans look forward to ring walks almost as much as the fight itself. Whether it’s the fire of Dre, the soul of the Fugees, or the grit of a Celtic war ballad, every track adds something unique to the fighter’s story.
