Michael Buffer Is Washed Up

[MurderDeathKill]

Nothing touches the ready to rumble line when Buffer spits it before the fight. Nothing.

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.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Lucky Bastards.

It's tough to come up with these classic tag lines though, as well as the delivery. They deserve what they get.

No doubt about it. Michael Buffer is washed up. I'd like him to retire. In recent times, it has become quite apparent to me, just how much better of an announcer Jimmy Lennon Jr. is.

Buffer's up and down announcing of names is very amateurish. Jimmy, on the other hand, doesn't sound like a strangled cat when announcing names and does it much more consistently.

Buffer is living off his catchphrase, image and days gone by. There just isn't much quality to his announcing anymore.

Anyone who is a real boxing fan and respects the sport understands it's Lennon > Buffer all day every day.

Jimmy Lennon Sr. was the best though, his voice just makes you think of boxing. The worst is Buffer's brother that does the UFC fights, he's terrible because he doesn't do anything but make this fake voice.

It's not a mega fight without Buffer. Lennon will always be #2. he has accepted that fact, so why can't yall?
