Sure, she&#8217;s linked arms at fights with former UFC and Strikeforce middleweight champion Luke Rockhold, but she&#8217;s been kicking ass herself for a couple of years now. Of course, walking out to perform at May\/Mac is another spectacle altogether. It hearkens back to when Sinead O&#8217;Connor sang Conor McGregor out to the Octagon against Chad Mendes. Of course, if you remember, it was supposed to be opposite Jose Aldo walking out to a live performance by Rihanna. It wasn&#8217;t quite that big, but now it definitely has reached that peak. Who knows, with the way both sports are going, maybe we see Demi Lovato in the cage or ring for an actual fight.
