UFC Vegas 106: Which songs have Gilbert Burns and Michael Morales walked out to?
Gilbert Burns, who holds a UFC record of 15-8, is navigating one of the most challenging stretches of his career, having dropped five of his last seven outings. The Brazilian veteran last competed at UFC Vegas 97 in September, where he came up short via unanimous decision against Sean Brady.
'Durinho' has long made his octagon walk synonymous with the lively Portuguese track 'Medley' by Brazilian artist Buchecha. The upbeat anthem has become a trademark of Burns, accompanying him to numerous fights.
Meanwhile, Morales remains unbeaten in the UFC with a flawless 5-0 record, which includes three knockout victories. The budding welterweight prospect is coming off a dominant first-round stoppage of veteran Neil Magny at UFC Vegas 96 in August 2024.
When it comes to walkout music, Michael Morales typically opts for variety, switching things up from fight to fight. The 25-year-old Ecuadorian made his entrance to 'Jugador Franquicia' by Myke Towers for his bout against Max Griffin in July 2023.
For his UFC 277 clash with Adam Fugitt, Michael Morales chose to make his entrance to the globally popular track 'Bangarang' by Skrillex featuring Sirah.

Craig previously made his walkout to the powerful track 'Victory Over the Sun' by Biffy Clyro for his bout against Caio Borralho at UFC 301 in May 2024.
Meanwhile, Rodolfo Bellato holds a relatively fresh UFC record of 1-0-1 and is coming off a draw against Jimmy Crute at UFC 312 in February. The Brazilian fighter has been known to make his entrance to 'Aonde Nos Chegou' by MC Menor e MC Dede.
