The UFC has been a trailblazer in the world of Combat Sports for almost two decades. There have been many entertaining events and appearances which have made the UFC popular. However, there have not been a lot of entertaining performances before or after fights. Japanese skateboarder Yuto Horigome recently swayed fans with his impressive performance at RIZIN 33.

Horigome was good friends with Tenshin Nasukawa who was on the main event that night. His appearance was widely appreciated by the crowd who cheered for him. Horigome was able to impress the crowd by balancing a bar with his skateboard. He then went on to crash into a stack of Yogibo chairs which are popular in Japan.

However, the UFC has had its own share of entertaining walkouts and dances. Former UFC champion Israel Adesanya impressed many fans with his impressive walkout at UFC 243 before winning the middleweight championship. However, the most recent entertaining walkout was when Chang Jun Sung had the crowd vibing to Zombie by The Cranberries.

Horigome is one of the most popular and successful skateboarders in the world. He is sponsored by some of the biggest brands in the industry, including Nike, Element Skateboards, and Thunder Trucks. Horigome is also a role model for young skateboarders around the world.
