      He's maybe past his prime and was weight drained but his ATG 1 status is saved

        He does such a great job turning a fight into an event. I think he should keep going until he can't speak any more. What a voice...

          I don't like how Buffer enuciates the names. I'd prefer that they go back to the old days when they just said the hometown and the name simply. Not the record, nickname, mothers maiden name and preferred drink of choice.

            Lennon is OK, but Buffer is the top man.

            If you want a world title fight or any fight to be big, then it's Buffer who is world famous.

            He is still good and it's better to hear him talk like around a GBP style promotion aswell as fight night.

              has anyone noticed that buffer is getting a bit more vocal these days...he used to stick to the script...but now he's all over the place...dude gets paid stacks...i think he's kind of feeling himself...at the mayweather/mosley weigh-in, he was talking about paydays...bofore bouts, he says a little off key banter to get the crowds attention...maybe i'm overanalyzing...but buffer has changed in the past year...still top dog in the announcing game, tho...his brother is the absolute worst...i'd like to see his other brother in action...i hear he does rodeos or some ****...

                Yeah, he's cool. I like how he pronounces "Maidana" and "Argentina" properly.

                  "Ahora Veremos, Quien Es El Mas Macho!" = Awesome Tagline.

                  For english Announcing though, I'm torn between the two (Lennon and Buffer).

                      Being a top ring announcer must be awesome.

                      You just talk and read from a card, get front row seats, are paid pretty well and just hang around with ring card girls. Seems like a pretty sweet deal to me.
