Entrance music is important in boxing – it gets you psyched up, and it can get your opponent psyched out.
George Groves is getting a lot of praise for his entrance music in Saturday night's fight against Martin Murray.
Groves vs Murray was the penultimate bout before the main event of Anthony Joshua vs Dominic Breazeale, and it got the crowd on their feet right from the start.
Hammersmith-born Groves walked into the ring to the Peaky Blinders theme tune (Nick Cave's "Red Right Hand") which then merged into "Spitfire" by The Prodigy.
Nice.
