Is it true Mike Buffer gets paid 100,000 a event just to announce? I heard he does like 50 shows a year almost.

It's not any worse than this... and he doesn't even get the name right.

The introductions took way longer than the fight.

Everything you say is true. But it should be noted that Buffer is incredibly wealthy from trademarking his famous introduction, and he could live the rest of his life in luxury if he never worked again.

Yes but he is also a busineman. Just like the other businessmen, they want to keep money coming in.

LOLOL. I just have to laugh when I hear stuff like that. Listen, not to bust Buffer's chops or anything, or put his business on main street, but I can tell you this; I have worked on alot of big shows with HBO and Showtime that have used Buffer, or Jimmy Lennon, and I can assure you that I have never seen an announcer make even FIVE figures, much less SIX figures, for a show. I dont know where that nonsense comes from. And yes, in my job capacity I see the actual budgets and payouts.
