Just two words will tell you exactly who I'm talking about if you know anything when it comes to the UFC.

It's time!

Man, those words have launched a million memories for me and the people closest to me.

UFC all begins when it's a major event with a man named Bruce Buffer.

Hey, I'm Chris Cuomo. I'm really pumped for this episode of the Chris Cuomo project.

I love making introductions for you to people who I believe shaped the world around us.

Whether it's how we think about things or how we live or how we experience,

and Bruce Buffer is exactly that for me, and legions of fans all over the country of mixed martial arts

because he is the voice of the octagon.

And it's more than just being an announcer with a fancy jacket and the man can dress.

I don't talk to him about it because as you know, the hell do I know about dressing?

But the energy and the kind of impromptuor, the stamp of this is it.

It's time. Here's the big event. This is what we've been talking about.

This is what we've been waiting for. He just personifies all of that.

And what's so interesting is what's not known about him.

And his connection to the man who made famous really from my generation,

the idea of announcing before an event at all. Remember,

what's that?

And if you're in a taxi cab in New York City, for safety.

That was amazing. Michael Buffer.

What's their relationship? How it happened? A lot of surprises.

But they're also very different even though they're in the kind of same space.
