    I just saw an interview he did with a local tv network and after the interview the guy mentioned that Buffer got 25,000$ for announcing the last two fights tonight.

    Damn!!! $$$$$$$$$$$$$

    $25,000:lol:

    Pennies in the bucket to Buffer, my friend. He's made $400 million off his trademark "Lets get ready to rumble!".

    It wasn't a full night of work for him. Another announcer did the undercard.

    Her only did the two HBO fights.

    That's what happens when your name is synonymous with boxing.

    I give him props on that too. It is very respectful to at least try to announce in the native language of the country you are in.
