    Not really.

    I thought the ring announcers were bad in the UK, but he was terrible.

    Or should I say terrreeeeeebbbllleeerrr!

    Yeah, that line is too forced, and Buffer's "let's get ready to rumble" was too corny for my taste. I always preferred "the classy" Jimmy Lennon Jr.!

    The longest ring introductions I've ever seen came courtesy of that horrendous ring announcer in Cancun this year for the Diaz/Campell and Peter/Maskaev fights. That guy had no idea what he was doing. First heavyweight title fight in Mexico's history and they get that jackass to be the ring announcer?:patsch

    Maybe the julian lennon of boxing since his dad Jimmy Lennon Sr.(another classy guy) was the original:good

    I must admit I prefer Buffer, but Jimmy is decent enough!
