    Michael Buffer covers events when his brother, and partner of their company, Bruce Buffer, is not able to cover a show. The same goes the other way. When Michael was battling throat cancer, Bruce filled in and did announcing on a few boxing events - including an HBO card.
    Fact checking? What do you want me to do, write a letter to the NSAC? Its a forum not a newspaper, I saw that those judges were on the GSP vs Penn fight so Im posting about it here.

    Surely theses judges arent experienced enough to accuratly pick the winner of a completley different sport..

      Just face the fact; they way they fight in MMA is how we all were fighting in the school yard, thats why many feels "at home" with MMA. I personally feel for boxing more than MMA, boxing is more protected and I've seen some gruesome injuries in MMA that makes the stomach turn, broken legs, wrists, people losing so much blood that they faint, etc

          They are trained. There are training programs through the athletic commission. When there are millions of dollars at stake with ********, the athletic commission ensures their people are properly trained.

              I wouldn't call it stealing when the UFC has been "Outworking" boxing over the past 5 years.

                They were the first trained in Unified rules and judging.

                Do homework next time and stop using ignorance as a crutch.
