Here's a more recent article

Says he sold the rights (ready to rumble) to midway for 100mill, if that's true, and that was 17 years ago, maybe 400mill isn't too unbelievable. Especially if he's been Gd with his money n not messing with too many ho's

Thanks to his brother Bruce who got the trademarks for him. There is a cool documentary on them I forget what it's called
Wait they had it on HBO real sports
I heard he makes 1.5 million for every event
Lol yeah right. So he makes more than fighters are u stupid? Yeah people pay money to hear buffer announce lol. Who pays him 1.5 mill?
Not hating would love to have buffers job and i bet he is balling but 1.5 mill? Lol
I heard he makes 1.5 million for every event
no way, why would he make as much as the the fighters in the main event, he's replaceble no one is there to see him
I believe it and it's because of the famous phrase. He's made millions off trademarking it. I saw somewhere that he and Bruce Buffer didn't even know they were brothers until late in life, and it was Bruce who told Michael to trademark it the phrase.
I thought the thread was going to be > Did you know that Michael Buffer is .....gay?
And, there's no way he makes that kind of money at every fight. He'd be richer than most of the big name fighters if he did.
Might not be exactly $400 million but he's more successful than many would believe. I have a lot of respect for Buffer. He made something from nothing and shared the wealth with his brother. For those that don't know his brother holds the same stature as an announcer for UFC, as he does for boxing.
Who knew you could create such wealth by marketing a few catch phrases.......
I respect him as well, Buffer is a badass and it doesn't feel like a big fight if he's not the one announcing. However, that figure just seems bogus and inflated.
His brother is terrible by the way, dude just screams like he's letting out a big turd.
lol that's ridiculous, I can't believe that at all.
