When mixed martial arts legend Anderson Silva makes his way to the Octagon for UFC 208, fans will notice a major difference.
Silva has always used DMX’s “Ain’t No Sunshine” as his entrance music, but on Saturday night in Brooklyn he will be straying from tradition for a new walkout song, “Doom.”
Why the change?
“Doom” is an original song by Silva’s son, Kalyl Silva, and is currently available on iTunes.

It’s pretty cool to see Silva giving his son such big exposure. And it doesn’t hurt that the song isn’t too bad.
