10 Lessons Learned From UFC Fight Night 52

9. The Game Of Thrones Theme Is A Fantastic Walkout Song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7L2PVdrb_8 Jon Delos Reyes didn't fare well in his bout with Kyoji Horiguchi to open the main card of UFC Fight Night 52. The fighter was knocked out in the first round of the bout, to the raucous approval of the crowd in Tokyo. He did prove one thing, however: the theme from HBO's Game of Thrones makes an epic, and extremely fitting, walkout song for a UFC event. And as the show tells us, anyone can die. Translate that to the "anyone can win/lose" of the UFC, and suddenly the song makes even more sense.
