“I put my all into my work. The moment I can no longer perform physically or vocally, it will be time to stop. But my passion only grows, so that won't happen anytime soon. I’m fine for at least the next ten years,” said the announcer.

When asked about the biggest fights he's seen in the Octagon, Buffer said it's difficult to list, but he mentioned one in particular.

PUBLICITY:

“I've been doing this for 25 years, so I've probably seen every fight that happened in the Octagon and I'll end up forgetting more than remembering. It's very difficult, if not impossible to say which was the best fight. But a good example is the final of the first season of The Ultimate Fighter, when Stephan bonnar e Forrest griffin they fought. I even got excited and told the audience that they had just seen the biggest fight of all time. That’s not my role as an announcer, but at that moment I couldn’t help it,” recalled Buffer.

Regarding who the best fighters of all time would be, Bruce Buffer listed names that made history in the organization and some that are still active.

PUBLICITY:

“It’s a long list. Definitely Jon Jones, despite not having stopped yet. Definitely Georges St-Pierre. You can put Chuck Lidell on that list too, seeing what he did to pave the way for the UFC. Randy Couture, for sure. Israel adesanya you are in the right way. And without a doubt Amanda nunes proved to be the greatest of all time in women's MMA. She is incredible”, analyzed the announcer.

Finally, Buffer spoke about the names he sees positively for the future of the organization.

“I think the next big superstar you'll see will be Brandon Moreno. He will win over fans and have a long and successful career. I'm very impressed with him and I want to see his evolution process. Isral Adesanya too, for sure. And let's see how Francis Ngannou evolves. Everyone loves heavyweights,” she concluded.

    Are you sure he mentioned Chuck Lidel and didn't mention Anderson Silva? What a shame, you might not like Anderson until you question the disastrous end of his career but he was the greatest fighter I've ever seen in his prime, what he did to his opponents bordered on disrespectful because he was so superior.
