UFC World in Awe of ‘Best’ Bruce Buffer as Video of His ’Very High Level Professionalism” Goes Viral

Bruce Buffer is the man behind the mic who not only makes announcements for the UFC but also raises the spirit of the audience. The legendary announcer makes the crowd go crazy with a single “It’s time”. He has stuck with the UFC and become an essential member of the Octagon. He won the public with his first announcement in 1996 and has been loved ever since. However, the legendary announcer, in fact, performs a ritual of warm-up exercises before he goes on with the announcements. 

The ‘Veteran Voice of the Octagon’ is someone without whom the UFC would be left incomplete and boring. Although his announcements are on a level that is unachievable by common men, it does take a toll on his throat. Which is probably why he has to perform warm-up exercises. Fans, however, are entertained not only by the way he speaks but also by the way he gets himself ready before the announcements.
