    He's the best. He makes the fights sound maybe even better than they actually are. He adds a classiness to it, that otherwise isn't there.

    From what i've read he puts a lot of thought into his announcements (rehearsing, leaving out unnecessary details, arranging it in a way that builds up the crowd hype, makes sure to pronounce all the judges names correctly, etc) Definitely paid off for him;

    he's such a gentleman, carries himself with real humility. Gotta love Mr.Buffer, a boxing match is never the same unless he announces the fighters.

      Buffer could announce anything. He'd could be at the grand opening of a restaurant or a car wash and announce it and it would be awesome.

    I would've never thought Bruce has this business mentality. I guess I underestimated him a tad bit. Both Bruce and Michael are great ring announcers, no doubt. I always liked Michael more, though, because he seems so natural and his voice is so smooth. But if you think about it, Bruce's way of announcing is perfect for the kind of atmosphere MMA has - it makes you feel so alive.
