Was that why Pj and Duncan's song was called Let's Get Ready To Rhumble?
If he has infact got copywrite to using those words together in a sentence, then aren't we now liable to suing?

He's a carnival huckster, & every time I hear him announcing a fight I think he's going to go on to say that tickets for the gimp parade & the bearded lady are still available.

But each to their own, like.
Whoa calm down haha. I think I've been misunderstood. I don't mean he's cool as in someone I would look up to or aspire to be, I meant having Buffer at the event announcing the big fight is cool. I think I use the word cool a bit too much.

I'm a classy Lennon Jr fan meself, but Buffer gets the crowd rocking before the main event!

Yes, but nobody goes to the fights because of the undercard, nor feels ripped off if its weak.

There have been fantastic undercard matchups that have been much better than the headline bout; I've felt ripped off at paying PPV for a big name in a bout and a shite undercard; I miss the old Don King cards.
