bruce isn't nearly as good, but he's also weirdly delusional about how he's a tough guy.One of the few ring announcers I didn't have to turn off out of annoyance. Can't say the same for his brother. Ugh.

Bruce is part of UFC lore. He is objectively ridiculous, but i hope they keep him. Just like i love the vintage coliseum entrance music.Sometimes when you're around tough people, you start to think you're tough yourself. I guess that's what happened with Bruce. He thinks he's a fighter instead of just the dork ring announcer.
I feel like he's just kept around as a mascot because he's truly terrible at his job. Last time I heard his voice was probably in the 2000s. Can't imagine he has gotten any better.
Michael Buffer is an international boxing Hall of Famer and his brother Bruce once held his own against Frank Trigg in an elevator fight. Show some respect.Of all the things to make you fangirl out over something, this truly baffles me. Who gives fuck about the announcer?
He seems just as contrived and ridiculous as his brother to me.
Reading this makes me think a little bit less of Matt Hughes tbh.Michael Buffer is an international boxing Hall of Famer and his brother Bruce once held his own against Frank Trigg in an elevator fight. Show some respect.
I was only being half serious but yes the story is true. Trigg himself confirmed it as did Dana. Bruce can actually fight. I'm not sure if he used to compete or not but he was a martial artist prior to becoming a fight announcer. I just Googled his credentials. He's a black belt in Tang Soo Do and a green belt in Judo. Frank fucked around and found out lol.Reading this makes me think a little bit less of Matt Hughes tbh.
I think the UFC probably pays Bruce pretty well. My understanding is that it's mainly just the fighters that they rip off.Bruce is lucky that his brother Michael let him do the ufc. But in a way it suits Michael, cause the ufc would never pay him the big bucks.
