The Ultimate Fighting Championship returned to Phoenix for a mega card with dual title fights on the marquee.

UFC 274 was headlined by a lightweight title clash pitting former champ Charles Oliveira, who lost his title on the scale Friday, against Justin Gaethje. The bill also featured a strawweight championship tilt as Rose Namajunas took on Carla Esparza.

Just as incredible as the fights themselves, Saturday’s music selections were unique and diverse. Standout jams included an amazing contrast between Matt Schnell (Reba McEntire: “Fancy”) and Brandon Royval (Ol’ Dirty Bastard: “Shimmy Shimmy Ya”). Also of note, Jamaican Randy Brown utilized Ini Kamoze’s “Here Comes the Hotstepper,” a chart-topping single from 1994 about a fugitive on the run from the law. On a similar vibe, Danny Roberts selected British rapper Stormzy’s amazing “Big for Your Boots” from the Madden 18 video game soundtrack.
