What a legend. How come he announces every single big fight? He did Calzaghe Kessler, Mosley Cotto, mayweather hatton - wghere there's a big fight, he's there. I like it. I wonder how much money he gets per announcement.
do you guys know he's got that "lets get ready to ruuuuuuuuummmbbbbbbllllleeee" phrase listed as a patent? anyway a super fight just does'nt seem like a super fight without buffer doing the introductions.
I've alwasy thought Jimmy Lennon Jr. was gay. Maybe he's not - but everytime I see him - that's what I think. Michael Buffer and his brother do a damn good job at what they do. And they've turned it into an nice little business. Remember they had the Boxing Game "Ready to Rumble"!
Buffer's act is getting old.Time for a new kid on the block.Can you just imagine Roger mayweather announcing a fight?
"We have a special guest with us tonight...he's STILL makin' dem muth****in' computers...ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Bill Gates."
Buffer let us down on Saturday night, sub par performance, fame has got to him..needs to go back to the gym and train!
I read in a book that when he came up with it he also came up with "man your battle stations" and "batten down the hatches" but decided "let's get ready to rumble" worked best.
I heard he gets a cool million every time he says that ****. he's not at all the big fights though. You won't see him introducing fighters on Showtime.
