The UFC may not be as grand and dramatic as the WWE when it comes to their fighters’ entrances and walkout songs. Nonetheless, walkout songs are an essential aspect of being a combat sports athlete, which helps fights to express themselves. As such, today we will be looking at some of the best walkout songs of former champion Jiri Prochazka, who is set to fight Aleksandar Rakić at UFC 300.

UFC 300 is a historic event for Dana White‘s promotion as it will mark the triple-century pay-per-view event of the UFC since its inception. The card is stacked with some great fighters, including Jiri Prochazka, who will be our focus in this article. As we’ve mentioned earlier, let’s take a look at his walkout songs, especially for his last fight at UFC 295.

After getting sidelined by a shoulder injury for over a year, Jiri Prochazka made his comeback at UFC 295 in Madison Square Garden. He returned to fight for the 205-pound title against Alex Pereira. However, Prochazka could make a triumphant return. Meanwhile, some people did not like the way the fight against ‘Poatan’ ended, with many people questioning the referee for that reason. Regardless, he did leave an impression among the fans and the crowd in attendance while walking down to the Octagon with his walkout song.

‘The Czech Samurai’ decided to pay tribute to WWE legend Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson with his walkout song. Jiri Prochazka walked out to the theme song of the DC movie ‘Black Adam‘, which was composed by Scotsman Lorne Balfe, showcasing his interest in superheroes and fictional characters of that kind. Now, let’s turn our attention to some of the other catchy walkout songs that Prochazka has walked out to while fighting in the UFC.
