Where the hell was Michael Buffer last Saturday?

Personally i prefer Jimmy Lennon jnr. Buffer imo is just a parody of himself these days, you can tell what he's going to say and how he's going to say it. Great orator, but no real originality or imagination in the way he introduces people. Lennon is much better at creating the hype and working the crowd, but Buffer is good at reading out the sponsors.

Basically he was hired to go to Germany for the Klitschko fight, which is fair enough. That fight got cancelled, HBO already hired the other guy, so Buffer just went to the fight as a fan. Tbh, the guy wasn't that bad. I think the problem is that, Buffer is just so impeccable! He's too good at what he does, a once in a life time type of MC, and Jimmy Lennon Jnr is pretty bad ass too....in them two we had great ring announcers, you can't replace that kind of thing. But trust me, this guy on Saturday was MUCH better than what we have in UK....the UK MC's sound horrid and just shout REALLY loud. One fight Jimmy Lennon Jnr came to and I was SO HAPPY, made a huge difference to the fight and the buzz it gave the crowd.

mike buffer was at ringside in vegas

Mr. Buffer has a great relationship with the Klitschkos and K2, and will always make the trip to Germany to MC their fights. They probably pay him a pretty penny for the 18+ hour trip. Buffer is at 0:18 Buffer is mint when he casually slips into the the local tongue when abroad. Whenever I go to an event though I seem to get Jimmy "iiiiit's showtime" Lennon leading proceedings. He still gets me fired up but it aint quite as good. Buffer was good when he was saying who was ringside in Manchester for Hatton vs Lazcano. Listed off loads of Stars; Mike Tyson, Wayne Rooney.... he then announced an average British actor called Neil Morrisey and the crowd burst out laughing :D

michael buffer is a legend. bruce buffer is literally the biggest ****ing gimp on the planet. "This is Sparta!!!!"

Lupe Contreras for the win.

I thought "Oh, God! Michael's dead!" But there was no ten count so I knew that wasn't the case... but I really missed him.

Chuck Hull was the best ring announcer of all time. I find Buffer so annoying with his drawn out bullsh|t in there. When he does go, I won't miss him. Wow... I didn't know Buffer haters even existed. I thought it was pretty much a given that every boxing fan thinks that Buffer = GOAT.

Makes me wonder who's gonna replace Buffer when he's done? Not that ****in guy I hope... and not Jimmy Lennon Jr either... hes with showtime anyway. can't imagine a big fight without Buffer.... and no way his replacement will use "Let's get ready to rumble"... Buffer holds a giddy license on that phrase... man, those are 2 big questions: if that time comes, who will replace Buffer and what phrase his replacement will come up with... :wtf:

He kinda sounds like that French-Canadian guy that announces Lucian Bute's fights.

Makes me wonder who's gonna replace Buffer when he's done? Not that ****in guy I hope... and not Jimmy Lennon Jr either... hes with showtime anyway. How about that guy (Tommy Edwards) that introduced Michael Jordan at the United Center. That'd be awesome... Annnnddd now... Frommmm North Carolina...at guard...6’6"...Michael Jordan!

that guy made it sound like a tacky UFC match.

He had traveled to Germany for the Klitschko-Chisora fight, but that got canceled.

probably on vacation lol
