Well, let me tell ya somethin’ about this “chito vera walkout song,” ya know? I ain’t no fancy music expert or nothin’, but I know what gets my blood pumpin’. And lemme tell ya, that Chito fella, he picks some good tunes.
So, this “walkout song,” it’s like the music they play when them fighters strut their stuff before they start beatin’ each other up. Like in them wrestlin’ matches I used to watch on that ol’ box TV. They always had some noisy music blarin’. This Chito guy, he’s one of them UFC fellas, ya know? Them tough guys who punch and kick and grapple. They gotta have somethin’ to get ’em all fired up.
I heard tell he used this song called “Where You Come From” by some fella named DJ Khaled and another one, Buju Banton. Sounded kinda Jamaican to me. Guess it worked for him, ’cause he whooped that other fella, Pedro Munhoz, real good. Dominated him, they said. See, that’s what a good walkout song does. It gets ya in the mood to win.
Now, some folks say he used other songs too. Heard tell of somethin’ called “A LO CHITO” by some singers, Rudboy Rudy and I don’t remember who else. That one, they even made a whole music video for it, fancy stuff with them cameras and all. They even called it his “official walkout song.” Must be important then, huh?
- “Where You Come From” – DJ Khaled feat. Buju Banton
- “A LO CHITO” – Rudboy Rudy and some other folks
- Maybe some other songs too, who knows? These young’uns change their minds like the weather.
It ain’t just Chito, though. All them fighters got their own songs. I heard about this other fella, Kevin Holland, he used somethin’ called “Ghost” by that young rapper, NBA Youngboy. And that Wonderboy fella, Stephen Thompson, he used a song called “Wonderboy” by Jack Black. Imagine that! Using a song with your own name! Must be somethin’ special. But I ain’t heard of them fellas so can’t tell you too much.
This whole walkout song thing, it’s more than just noise, ya see? It’s about gettin’ ready. Gettin’ pumped up. Lettin’ the other guy know you mean business. It’s like when I used to make them pies for the county fair. I’d put on my favorite gospel music, hum along, and get in the zone. Same kinda thing, I reckon.
Now, I ain’t got no fancy music player, just my old radio, but if I was a fighter, I’d pick somethin’ with a good beat. Somethin’ that makes ya wanna stomp your feet and clap your hands. Maybe somethin’ by Johnny Cash, ya know? He always sung about tough times and comin’ out on top. Or maybe somethin’ from them old country fellas, Hank Williams or Merle Haggard. They knew how to tell a story with their music.
But I tell ya, whatever song Chito vera picks, it must be working for him. He’s a tough fella, that Chito. And a good walkout song just makes him tougher. So next time you see him fightin’, pay attention to the music. It’s tellin’ ya a story, just like them old country songs. It’s tellin’ ya that Chito’s ready to rumble.
And that’s all I gotta say about this “chito vera walkout song.” It’s just music, but it’s important music. It’s the kinda music that gets ya ready to fight. And in this world, sometimes you gotta fight for what you want. Just like Chito vera.
So next time you hear that music play, you know it’s about to go down!
