With some of the most die-hard fans out there, Bruce Buffer has managed to craft a unique legacy in the world of MMA. There’s plenty that fans of the UFC and Bruce Buffer may not know about the iconic announcer, and it’s not an understatement to say that there’s plenty that’s likely to surprise people.
10. Black Belt In Tang Soo Do
Whether fans have thought about it or not, Bruce Buffer is quite the fan of MMA. Since he’s had an interest in MMA since he was young, Buffer has managed to obtain a 2nd-degree black belt in the historic Korean martial art known as Tang Soo Do.
While many may not know much about Tang Soo Do, it is actually based on Karate, subak, and Chinese martial arts. While Buffer was actually a competitive kickboxer in his use, it’s entirely possible he used his Tang Soo Do knowledge while sparring against the likes of Royce Gracie.
