The legendary UFC announcer Bruce Buffer recently turned announcer for an NFL game. The 25-year UFC veteran is one of the most recognizable faces in the combat sports world. Fight fans and now people, in general, know who he is, and he has made quite a name for himself.
With no UFC events happening till 2022, the promotion does not require Buffer, and, in his time off, he took his skills to the NFL. In an AFC West matchup, Las Vegas Raiders played host to Denver Broncos and Buffer was there to introduce both teams.
After introducing the away team and the three-time Super Bowl winners, Raiders, Buffer finished with his trademark catchphrase, ‘It’s Time.’
