Dr Dre’s tonic for me and hits of a different kind

-

I HAD a chat with Dr Dre last night, not something you say every day. We designed a pair of headphones together for Beats, which is crazy.

I’ve been working on a playlist ready for the dressing room — a bit of Stormzy, some Notorious B.I.G. and James Brown… I like to mix it up.

You need some tunes to relax to when you get there but then you are looking to get sharp and switch on, too.

I always leave it late to pick my ring-walk music, sometimes something new comes up or I hear a blast from the past that I think fits nicely. I like to put on a show with my entrances.

I opened it up to Facebook

Live and the fans gave me some cool choices.

Eye Of The Tiger seemed like a bit of a cliche and I think I’d box like a madman walking out to that.

Michael Jackson was thrown in, so was Queen, 50 Cent — all sorts! It’s a pretty big decision but I think I’ve sorted it and you’ll have to tune in to see what I go for.
