UFC ring announcer Bruce Buffer talks toys
Yesterday, I showed you the interview I did with Damon Lau, owner of Round 5 MMA toys, at the UFC Fan Expo in Boston. Damon discussed the next upcoming vinyl UFC figures on the way out for 2010. Today, take a look at one of the men who is now cast in plastic for all of eternity - Bruce Buffer! UFC ring announcer Bruce Buffer was hanging out for an autograph signing, so I jumped on him like a rabid Star Wars action figure collector and got him to talk about his new figure from Round 5, as well as what his favorite toy was growing up. Plus, you can also hear his UFC 118 predictions despite the event being days old now and hear him announce my name like I am a UFC fighter! Hit the jump to check out the vid!
