The WORST ring announcer EVER???

[robjr]

that guy even made Jeff Conner from the Contender look like a good announcer..

[Gareth Ivanovic]

Should have got lupe contreras. Quien es el mas macho?!?!?!?!

Yeah where was Lupe? For HBO fights you either expect him of Michael Buffer. Then Showtime has Lennon Jr. That whole production didn't seem right with inexperienced judges for the Diaz/Campbell fight and that lousy announcer.

yeah, I really like Contreras and this guy was TERRIBLE. It was actually hard to listen to. If you can get your hands on to the telefutura telecast of Juan Manuel Marquez vs Baby Lorona though, that guy tops him. That **** is hilarious, dude didn't speak english and made words up.

Yea lupe's transition from english to spanish is ****ing FLAWLESS. This is how I rank my announcers.

1. "The Classy" Jimmy Lennon Jr.
2. Lupe Contreras
3. Michael Buffer

I like jimmy the best because his voice has the old school announcer thing going and he also speaks spanish very well. He has a great spanish accent when speaks. Buffer just tries to hard. Other than the "lets get ready to rumble" I'm not a big fan.

[Point Blank]

who the **** allowed that guy to ****ing speak on the microphone. first of all his got this mexican accent which is not appealing to other people, second i dont know if he could even read or know what numbers look like and third **** him he just did terrible **** tonight

[Kidgarfield]

ouch

At least he shows that a bad announcer can wreck a show. It must have been a sponorship issue with a hotel in Cancun. He was wearing one of the hotel shirts. Lupe is awesome, Joe Martinez is very good. The guy from Florida who has done some ESPN announcing lately is very capable; wish I could remember his name. The Philadelphia guy, Larry Tornambe, sounds excellent and has some TV, he was on ESPN from Delaware in Feb.

Exactly what I thought of, it was quite bizarre/comical - not to mention incredibly distracting to the fighters.

U seen them just listening to the announcement, if i was mascaeve ida takin that oppertinity to swing a haymaker and take peter out, and if i was peter ida done the sam thing. It is absolutly a joke what that announce did

isnt that the broadway boxing dude? wierd guy.

Lupe contrero or w/e is very good too. i like his catch phrase

[ysuallthetime]

They made too big of a deal about it on TV.

I would like to see Lampley speak 2 languages like the announcer did
