Anyone else prefer Jimmy Lennon JR over Michael Buffer?

Michael Buffer is great, but Jimmy Lennon JR goes down smooth like a nice cold beer. Classy announcing

Hey Jimmy, hope you had a good Thanksgiving.

No seriously he is pretty good though...he has a good style to him.

[Ganondorf]

I have always slightly preferred Lennon.

They are both great doe.

By far.

But Buffer needs the gig to pay for all that plastic surgery.

[YoungManRumble]

I like them both honestly. Nice to hear different voices.

I even like David Diamante's throwback style but wish he would hack off those dreads.

Only ones I can think of by name I don't really like are Lupe Contreras and Ray Flores does ring announcing too doesn't he?

[FinitoxDinamita]

Back in the days I liked Buffer but the older i get, Im starting to like the classier Jimmy Lennon jr. It’s just more comforting to listen to.

David Diamante is my man. Know what you can tell a 6'9 white guy with dreads down to his ankles? Not a goddamn thing!


Plus, I love the old school way he makes his announcements, right down to repeating the last name of the fighters.

[NaijaD]

I like them both but there's a certain prestige that Buffer has over him for me.

I also like his brother when he does the UFC intros..... "IT'S TIME!!!"

Barely even get to hear Buffer anymore it seems I thought he was with DAZN, didn't know he was actually Exclusive to Matchroom

I am a boxing fan, not an announcer fan. If I had to chose I would chose Buffer but all announcers take too long. I consider them like national anthems. Something I have to wait to be over so I can watch the fight which is all I want to do. The announcer who is the fastest is the best to me. I don't think of them as classy but just something I have to put up with to watch the fight.
