Songs you associate with fighters
Re: Songs you associate with fighters
Hatton Blue Moon (and Winter Wonderland).
Haye - Aint no stopping us now
Eubank Simply the Best - But if I am not mistaken the fanfare that Eubank had at the start wasn't part of the original song.

Same on the naz front! He should have used it more, it worked well.Grilling Machine wrote: ↑05 Apr 2019, 23:13 Hatton and Lueshing were another couple of one-song fighters.
Naz only came out to Hotstepper once, but I've always remembered that and associate it with him.

One of my favorite entrances for the first Eubank fight. In the Air Tonight and Dangerous.

Chris Eubank - Simply The Best
David Haye - Aint No Stopping Us Now
Re: Songs you associate with fighters
Carl Thompson – I've Got The Power (Snap)
Lennox Lewis – The Big Payback (James Brown) in Rahman II
Naz – I remember coming out to Let Me Show You (Camisra), and I always associate that with the early Naz era
More recently George Grove used both Spitfire (Prodigy) and Paint it Black

I know, mate; was being lighthearted.leejonesjnr wrote: ↑07 Apr 2019, 06:48 Once a boxer has used a song it is off limits to all others forever?
Perhaps Haye 'stole' it, perhaps he sees it as a tribute, maybe Holmes didn't enter his mind at all.
Regardless, that is. now a song that many would associate with Haye.
Holmes and ANSN might actually be the first ever example.

Callum Smith always walks to Wages Day by Deacon Blue.
Groves done Spitfire by Prodigy a few times I think.

Dillian, Jaws and Back in Black. Benn snr and the tolling bells. Tony Bellew and Z Cars. Wlad and Can't Stop. I like when a fighter sticks with the same music, it adds something.
Re: Songs you associate with fighters
Definately, when Eubank's fanfare used to kick off before Simply the Best the heart would start to beat a bit faster, hairs on the back of the neck would stand up etc..... and yes used to have the same when the intro to "aint no stopping us now" would kick in for Haye.
I'd always associate Naz with "oops there it is".
Re: Songs you associate with fighters
Indeed, Naz probably still says that.stujones wrote: ↑09 Apr 2019, 10:06 Definately, when Eubank's fanfare used to kick off before Simply the Best the heart would start to beat a bit faster, hairs on the back of the neck would stand up etc..... and yes used to have the same when the intro to "aint no stopping us now" would kick in for Haye.
