06/26/2008 | Jimmy Lennon Jr. is my pick for the best living ring announcer. Part of the reason is strictly out of loyalty to his father , Jimmy Lennon Sr., who I consider the greatest ring announcer of all time, and in part because he really is that good. He is his father's son and has filled his shoes nicely.Like his father, he has a low key persona and style and one that I appreciate. He is there to support the fight card, not overpower it. The one quality that he shares with Michael Buffer is his impecable attention to detail regarding a fighter he is introducing, especially when pronouncing a foreign name. The best of the best.
