    For sure not Michael Buffer.

    German promoters look having taken him hostage as he's coming to Bamberg for Abraham vs. Marquez.

    And this time he can also save the money for his return flight as, you might guess, he will do his job one week later in Berlin for Klitschko vs. Peter.

    Maybe Mr. Buffer is already the most watched man on German TV to come out of the US of A and even one of the most popular...

    Is this all also a sign of regression in the US?

    I always love seeing Michael Buffer do his thing before a big fight because it makes it feel more intense.. Glad he's doing the Abraham fight..

    Also Tocca, where do you usually go to find your fight posters like the one you have in your avatar?

    I like Lupe. He should do it. Buffer likes these German trips and of course the Abraham fight will be available in the US, so having him on the show is a good choice from Sauerland.

    Yes, Lupe has great talent as an announcer. For him I would have hoped he was born 10-15 years earlier - he would have been great for all those great hispanic-fights. Nowadays, those groups still have good boxers but nothing great like a Chavez, Lopez or de la Hoya. But then again, Buffer would had stand in his way...
