British boxer Ohara Davies used The Undertaker’s entrance music as he made his way to the ring at the O2 Arena on Saturday

Boxer Ohara Davies used WWE legend The Undertaker's entrance music for his O2 Arena ring walk on Saturday night - and told Sky Sports that he plans to retain it for future fights.

Davies, 25, also wore an Undertaker-inspired black hooded gown as he strode into his WBC silver super lightweight title defence against Derry Mathews, which he won inside three rounds.

"I've been a wrestling fan since I was a kid - I've always loved it," said Davies, who has taken his professional boxing record to 15-0-12KO.

"Undertaker and Stone Cold Steve Austin were my favourites - Undertaker's entrance music, with all the bells, was always exciting.

"I'm in the entertainment business, so I have fun with it. Everyone loved it. I got a gown made for me, to make it as realistic as possible."

Every fight, I want the same kind of entrance but I have to make them more dramatic!
Ohara Davies

The Undertaker's entrance music was also heard on Monday Night Raw as The Phenom appeared in Chicago, firstly interrupting Braun Strowman and then chokeslamming Roman Reigns.
