Buffer 360 Fail!
Two screw ups by Buffer and the UFC.
1. They didn't televise it. I am sure there was some fear that the vast majority of casuals would pull a WTF but for all the die hards (the people who buy most of the PPV's where Brock Lesnar is not on the card) we wanted to see this.
2. Buffer did it with Brock Lesnar. Lesnar may be PPV gold but the fans that show up to these fights do not like him nor what he represents. Buffer needed to do the "360" with Georges St. Pierre. You know the guy everyone likes

Bruce's 360...
Hah – what I couldn’t believe is that as soon as Bruce started to announce each fighter, they camera would pan quickly over to the fighter(s) and not show him announcing! That’s just wrong – I don’t know about the live audience, but a lot of PPV fans and people I know who were attending LOVE his head whip and style, and look forward to seeing it. The UFC is doing us all a disservice by not showing that – as to us it’s part of the show.
Hey – he pretty much promised his FB fans he’d do it and he did…that’s all that counts! ;-D UFC was selfish for not showing it.

Met Buffer in the hotel the night before the fights. He’s one heck of a nice guy. My husband and I had our pictures made with him and my husband asked if we’d get to see the Buffer 360. He laughed and said maybe, so it was exciting to see it live. Too bad they didn’t show it on the ppv. I know a lot of other die-hard fans who were watching for it.
