    Too many catch phrases to the point of almost parody. His voice isnt bad and if he got a decent hair cut and cut his phrases down to 1 he'd be alright.

    No, no. Michael's brother Bruce Buffer I meant. Michael is class all the way.

    Jimmy Lennon jr is the best ring announcer.. He really does his homework . He visits every fighter to make sure he pronounces their names correctly & all details are correct . Really he leaves Michael Buffer standing.
    I'll never forget Buffer was in Ft Worth Texas doing one of those Heavyweight Explosion deals When the TV signalled he announced. " Welcome to Ft Worth Texas for an evening of World Class Professional WRESTLING"!!! Lol A little later on he interviewed Paulie Ayala , Fort Worth's future 2 time WBA bantam champ as " Paulie Ayala the NABF Heavyweight Champion" Paulie laughed & said afterwards My purses would be a lot bigger if I was a Heavyweight LOL
    Really that catchphrase of his " Lets Get Ready To RUMBLE"!!!!!!!!!! & a fake sun tan made him a fortune
    The judge sat next to me said " We can forgive him making a couple of bloopers look at that hot blonde beauty he's sat with" Id be tongue tied myself " Many Happy Memories

    I think 'ready to rumble' has no effect anymore at big fights. So I opt for the classy Jimmy Lennon. Not a cringe factor at all instead of 'ready for rumble' and all that stuff.

    He's annoying. Like the getting sassy with the crowd after "are you ready". They paid 100s or 1000s for those seats you numpty, they don't owe you anything.

    It's not his catchphrases that are annoying, it's just him, everything about him.


    He is the Eddie Hearn of ring announcers, a complete Moby.

    Jimmy Lennon Jr has consistently been the best at it.

    Buffer so overrated & has been since many years now, Jimmy is true class.

    Diamante has been around forever now. He rose to prominence back in 2011.

    He's good, I think. He's putting effort on his work. We should respect that.

    I think he did have the accident, just wildly overstated both it and the injuries that he sustained

    Premier league G.I.M.P

    No hate though, he's a colorful figure with the hair and attire. I am not a fan of the superfluous repetition of the boxers' surnames tho. Heard it first time, mate

    He's like a human-sized giant spider and he exudes a freakish raw sexual energy and malevolence unlike anything I've ever encountered before
