You know what really grinds my gears about Ricky Hatton vs Pacquiao?

I'll call HBO and request to have Carl Lewis sing the national anthem.

Roseanne Barr

[S.G.]

I agree.

I personally don't see the point of national anthems before a fight?

This.

Boxing is mano e mano... it's not like it's England vs Philippines football match

[ИATAS]

the last good American anthem I heard at a boxing match was by that one young mexican girl.

I remember one recently...it wasn't so much the singing as it was the woman was FINE AS HELL!! I think it was Oscar de la hoya vs stevie forbes...wait let me google....here it is, it was Nicole Scherzinger and damn she was lookin hot:

Don't R&B the National Anthem.... **** is disgraceful

I agree. The one exception though was Marvin Gaye, that **** was dope.

I've seen Ben Harper rock it out before an X-Games... some people may not like it rocked out, but I dug it.

[KnockoutTheFat]

The Hopkins-Pavlik anthem was epic.

[Pacdbest]

We need this sideshow coz the fight will last only 5 rds. Pac will KO hatton by rd 5.

[ИATAS]

The Hopkins-Pavlik anthem was epic.

lmao, that **** took like 45 minutes!!

[DIB42]

I agree with this. I do admit sometimes the over sung R&B renditions are unnecessary.

Whitney Houston's fault.(or maybe jimi hendrix* When she belted out the national anthem for the superbowl, other singers missed the point thought long and warbly was good
