to this day, Buffer's "ready to rumble" line still works
the guy puts himself over a lot, which Lennon doesn't do
but given the way he can fire up the crowd, give this to Buffer
Lennon is still very good too, he just doesn't pop the crowd the same
Gotta be buffer. He's the definition of class and his voice was made for ring announcing. I like lennon too. Diamante has a great voice also imo. Nick cannon fkng sucks as a ring announcer lol.
i prefer jimmy lennon, his voice has that old school sound to it. like if you were listening to a fight on the radio back in the 30s. and i think he's more knowledgable of the sport too. buffer is too hollywood for my tastes.
Michael Buffer of course that iconic voice and catchphrase is just too great to top right now. Look up his documentary it's interesting how he got into ring announcing.
However Jimmy Lennon Jr is catching up and is being seen and heard more and more. I actually didn't care for him but he actually is very excellent for Showtime and it's broadcast. I thought it would be weird to hear him instead of Buffer for Mayweather fights but it fits perfectly.
