Alexander Volkanovski Walkout Song: Which Track Does the Featherweight Champ Walk Out To?

UFC featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski, is gearing up to defend his title against undefeated UFC featherweight prospect, Ilia Topuria at UFC 298. Alexander Volkanovski is arguably one of the greatest featherweights to step inside the UFC octagon.

The Featherweight champion, despite losing twice on his venture to earn a second title at lightweight against Islam Makhachev, has been undefeated in the UFC featherweight division. Volkanovski is undeniably one of the most exciting fighters to watch. As soon as his walkout song plays in the arena, fans often get ready for war. But what is the featherweight’s walkout song?

Alexander Volkanovski walkout song for UFC 294

Alexander Volkanovski is a fighter that fights out of Australia, so being an Australian native it isn’t surprising to see him rock the most iconic song from the Australian rock band “Men at Work” for his UFC 294. “The Great” started using the song “Down Under” as his walkout song ever since he won the UFC featherweight title.

The Australian rock band released the song “Down Under” all the way back in 1980 and it was re-released as they signed with Columbia Records in 1981. The song was a hit during the 80s as by the new year of 1983, the song reached no.1 on the Billboard charts.

The song is jokingly considered by many as the national anthem of Australia, as many Australians can feel that the song accurately depicts the country. The music video of the song accurately depicts the upbeat rhythm of the song with an urgent underlying message of Australia losing its culture at the time.

Volkanovski using the song as his walkout accurately depicts how he holds the UFC with pride for himself and Australia. Yet, there was another song that the UFC champion used before he won the title.

All other tracks the featherweight champion Used before his fights

Before Alexander Volkanovski became the featherweight champion back in 2019, the Australian used a violin cover of the “Game of Thrones” theme song by Jason Yang and Roger Lima. Volkanovski being a big fan of the show used the Game of Thrones theme song during the walkout of quite a lot of fights.

The 35-year-old used the “Game of Thrones” theme song as his walkout song against José Aldo at UFC 237, Chad Mendes at UFC 232, Darren Elkins at UFC Fight Night 133, and some others.
