Bruce Buffer Signed as Silver Star’s Brand Ambassador

Bruce Buffer, the long-time ring announcer for the UFC, has officially signed on to be the newest brand ambassador for the Silver Star clothing line:

(IRVINE, CA) – Main “Voice of MMA” for the Ultimate Fighting Championship main events, Bruce Buffer, has inked a deal with Silver Star becoming the heavy-hitting MMA apparel brand’s official ambassador, a deal that includes an upcoming signature Bruce Buffer tee by Silver Star.

 

Buffer, first began at UFC 8 and has announced every show for the UFC since UFC 13, plus K-1 kickboxing events, Abu Dhabi Submission Wrestling Championships, HBO Boxing and many other MMA events internationally. In addition to hosting the popular “IT’S TIME!” life-styles radio show on BufferZone.net, Buffer is also a world-ranked poker player on the professional circuit who has been seen on ESPN’s World Series of Poker Main Event and placed 6th in Season 3 of the World Poker Tour and is a “Pro Player” for Full Tilt Poker. Aside from his love of the UFC and MMA, he is also an avid surfer and works in many areas of sports and entertainment.

 

I wanted to align myself with a brand that’s worn by champions and coveted by fans,” said UFC announcer, Bruce Buffer. “I respect the true spirit of sportsmanship fueling Silver Star and its athletes and I am proud to support the line, which I feel is the finest designed clothing line available to the fans of MMA today and for many years to come. I work with only the best and what they have planned for the future is awesome so I look forward to being an integral part of their ongoing success in their varied lifestyles marketplace.”

 

Buffer’s Silver Star ambassadorship marks the fusion of the most recognized voice (and face) of MMA with the most recognized and sought-after clothing brand in MMA.

 

Bruce is the perfect choice to represent our company,” said Silver Star president and CEO, Luke Burrett. “With Bruce’s charisma and his distinction as the voice of the UFC, his support of Silver Star carries a tremendous amount of weight in the MMA industry.” 

Payout Perspective:

Silver Star continues its assault on MMA with yet another related signing. In the last two months alone the company has picked up the likes of Lyoto Machida, Forrest Griffin, Jon Jones, and even boxing’s Manny Pacquiao. The company is also the main graphic tee sponsor for both fighters in UFC 108’s main event (Rashad Evans and Thiago Silva).

It remains to be seen exactly how involved Buffer will become, aside from his new signature t-shirt, but you can bet on his casual wardrobe now containing a great deal of Silver Star attire.
