Has Bruce Buffer ever messed up?

Like, has he ever said a name wrong or tripped over a word during a fighter intro? I’ve never seen it. Has it happened?

… of the very 4th rd

double post somehow

doesn’t know the difference between a split decision and a split draw

Ten years later, Bruce Buffer remembers the night he failed Frank Mir | MMA Junkie (usatoday.com)

Wasn’t a big deal, he just announced Frank Mir “the winner” instead of “the new” Champion after he broke Sylvia’s arm.

Isn’t that how he started his patented twist when announcing fighter because he improvised when he realized he was pointing and announcing the wrong corner so just went with it and it became popular?

I am not a huge fan of Bruce, because I prefer the smooth voice announcer, like his brother, and Jimmy Lennon Jr, rather than his loud, screaming style.

However, apart from that, he is very good at what he does. Reliable, consistent. Seems like a pro.
