10 Greatest Entrances In UFC History

10. Mark Hunt (UFC Adelaide)

Mark Hunt was coming off the back of an unfortunate TKO loss to Fabricio Werdum at UFC 180 - stepping in for the injured Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez - and needed to produce a special performance in order to topple 2019's current Heavyweight Champion, Stipe Miocic.

When that kind of challenge is laid before you, a fighter must use whatever is available to them to add any additional edge to their aura and thus bolster their confidence in the process.

Mark Hunt is a proud New Zealander and UFC Fight Night 65 would just so happen to be taking part on his home continent, in Australia. It's storied just how vicious the Australia/New Zealand rivalry can be in other sports, yet in MMA, beggars can't be choosers, and Hunt decided to maraud into the arena and rope in a few buddies to perform a ceremonial Haka. The fans in attendance lapped it up.

The usually pumping music was replaced by intense chanting and gesticulating, while Hunt's icy stare pierced a hole through the camera. It wasn't enough to bring him victory but it sure as hell gave the people in the arena enough goose-bumps to make them believe he could pull off a much needed win.
