Michael Buffer G.O.A.T ... "Let's get ready to rumble" How can you not get hype after hearing that. I'm 25 so I might be biased considering I been hearing Buffer since day 1.

Buffer and jimmy Lennon jr are the best by far

Jimmy Sr. was very good but the best to me was Johnny Addie!!!! He was the annoncer thru the 40s up to the early 60s. He was very direct and emphazied where the fighter was from because the competition between the cities in the country was a selling point as fighters traveled to fight.
His voice stayed the same and his seriousness was a prelude to what was to come.
The Buffer styled announcers today make it sound like a carnavel setting with a loud mouth "barker" trying to hype up a side show! Addie was the best for me, serious and direct and doubling up on the fighters last name was his personal touch.....................Joe Louis, Louis!!! HA! Ray

Lennon Jr. I seen him announce fights in 5 different languages without a problem

Stu Pot tied with Buffer, brilliant

Classy Jimmy and Buffer are amazing, as for new blood his name escape me but its the man with 2 tons of hair.

No love for Lupe Contreas ?

Quien es el MAS HOMO!?!?!?

Jimmy Lennon Jr., I can't stand Buffer.

Buffer the best for me. Lennon Jr. and Contreas are quality also.

At one time I was annoyed with Buffer but I recently watched an interview with him which showed him to be a fine human. I would and did vote for Buffer.
