Even though there is no introduction needed for a future hall of famer like Anderson “Spider” Silva, his walkout music always sets the mood for one of his fights.
For the past several years, DMX’s “Ain’t No Sunshine’ blared through the speakers as Silva made his way down to the octagon before the majority of his championship defenses. Whether fans wanted to see him win or lose, that song let everybody around the arena know to leave the concession stands and to come back because the main event was about to kick off.
“UFC 208” will be the end of an era, however, as Silva plans to ditch “Ain’t No Sunshine” in favor of a song recorded by one of his sons Kalyl:
No "Ain't no sunshine" for Anderson Silva this time. He will walk out with a song made by his son Kalyl: https://t.co/2g0XZFqVXN
