It's not long now until Jon Jones makes his first UFC appearance in three years when he takes on Ciryl Gane for the vacant UFC heavyweight title.
The pair are set to go head-to-head in Las Vegas on Saturday and there is plenty of excitement ahead of Jones' debut at heavyweight.
In addition to what fans could potentially see inside the Octagon, they will be looking forward to Jones' entrance into the T-Mobile Arena and at Thursday's press conference the former UFC light heavyweight champion revealed what his walkout song will be.
What song will Jon Jones walk out to against Ciryl Gane?
The song Jon Jones has picked is 'The Champ is Here' by Jadakiss.
Speaking at the pre-fight press conference, Jones explained that this song perfectly sums up his mentality ahead of Saturday's main event.
"I'm thinking a little bit of 'The Champ is Here', I'm a traditional guy," Jones said.
"Yeah, the champ is here, that's how I feel. The champ is here!"
