Legendary UFC announcer Bruce Buffer went viral when he was caught showing displeasure after Israel Adesanya’s loss at UFC 305. The event, held at the RAC Arena in Perth, featured a highly anticipated main event between Adesanya and Dricus Du Plessis.
The outcome of the fight left several viewers with mixed reactions, but one particular reaction that caught everyone’s attention was that of the 67-year-old Buffer. The renowned UFC announcer, known for his unique and energetic introductions, seemed visibly disappointed when Du Plessis emerged victorious.
Buffer has been a part of the UFC since its early days and has gained a reputation for his remarkable announcements. However, his latest viral reaction to the Adesanya-Du Plessis fight has left fans surprised.
In the clip, Buffer’s facial expressions turned somber as Adesanya tapped out to Du Plessis. This reaction was not limited to Buffer, as popular UFC commentator Joe Rogan also displayed a similar level of disappointment.
Netizens quickly took to social media to criticize Rogan for being biased towards Adesanya. However, the former middleweight champion himself handled the loss with grace, sharing a wholesome moment with Du Plessis.
The question now arises: What’s next for Adesanya? His coach, Mike Angove, recently revealed the former champion’s route back to the UFC gold. Angove acknowledged that Adesanya has a lot of difficult tests ahead of him, following his two-fight losing streak, the first in his UFC career.
Despite the recent setback, Adesanya’s coach remains confident in his fighter’s abilities. With the support of his team and the continued interest of fans, Adesanya’s journey to regain the UFC middleweight title promises to be an intriguing one.
