Is it me or is Joe Martinez much better than Buffer?

[Carrotman23]

I do prefer him nowadays. Buffer’s shtick is played out.

This! after a couple years his shtick has really warn off for me and I just find him mildly annoying .

 

[bjpenngoat]

Agreed ive been a big fan since the wec.

 

[Andy Capp]

It's you.

I'll take him over Buffer. Buffer is pretty annoying to me now I usually have to turn down the volume when he goes off. Buffer should have gone away with the gladiator intro.

 

[Sirwastealot]

Buffer is annoying, i always skip his intro when not watching live. Every time.

Nate diaz is a better announcer than buffer.

 

[Klaavical]

No comparison. Martinez actually has talent Buffer never did and was placed in defacto because his half brother was already a legend. He's horrible

 

[OldNick]

Except that Buffer is the...

REIGNING!

DEFENDING!

UNDISPUTED CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!!!!!

...of announcing.

 

[mmaknight]

Buffer 360 please and thank, for me anyways.

 

[Cormiers towel]

Buffer is so annoying. If I was driving down the street and he was walking across the street in front of me I wouldn’t slow down.

 

[Fight Professor]

Martinez is way more professional.

I'm glad to see Joe Martinez getting the credit he deserves. I always thought he was FAR superior to Bruce Buffer. Tbh, he's the best ring announcer in the sport imo.

 

[downthepines]

Buffer hasn't been as good at announcing as Joe for a while. I don't like Buffer, Its to "over the top" and he is a known creepy fuck in real life.

He sounds better. Better voice. Smooth. Buffer seems like a guy who got into it because his brother did. His brother Michael Buffer. He has the voice. Bruce never really did and he was always "UF SHEeeeee" his catch phrase it's time, is super lame. Am I alone?

Joe has been lightyears better for years.

Bruce sucks and is a complete douchebag.

 

[wildchild88]

I much prefer Martinez.

Buffer had a good run, and he's made plenty of money, time to move him on.

 

[USA!USA!]

OH MY GOD, WHAT A UNIQUE THREAD.

 

[theTKDguy]

They are both cool

 

[Beastos]

Joe is better indeed

 

[BowserJr]

Same

 

[Noraaq]

Bruce buffer is the best in the business

I personally don't give a fuck who the ring announcer is. I usually mute until the fight is underway. These announcements are getting dragged by advertisements and all this other bullshit. I don't care for the theatrics anymore. I care about the fight. When I was new to the ufc, it was cool. Now, its just meh.
