What Is Covington vs. Buckley’s Walkout Music for UFC Fight Night?
While the Ultimate Fighting Championship has yet to announce each fighter’s walkout music for the main event of UFC Fight Night, the fighters usually go out to the octagon to the same songs during their matches. Colby Covington typically walks out to former-WWE pro wrestler Kurt Angle’s theme song, while Joaquin Buckley prefers to walk out to “See Me Now” by Jeleel. So these songs will likely make an appearance during the MMA event.
