Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao: Jamie Foxx For National Anthem

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Another HUUUGE boxing role for Jamie Foxx -- 'cause he's just been tapped to sing the national anthem at the Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao mega-fight on May 2nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Our sources confirm ... Foxx -- who's starring as Mike Tyson in an upcoming biopic -- was recently approached about belting out the "Star-Spangled Banner" ... and jumped at the chance!

Foxx is a MAJOR boxing fan -- and famously starred as Muhammad Ali's right hand man Drew Bundini Brown in "Ali."

Good choice

[Larry the boss]

Can we just skip the 2 damn national anthems and just get to the fight?

Jamie Foxx has a beautiful voice. Good choice.

An American is singing the National anthem?

Yup, Floyd BOUGHT this whole thing.

Not that Jamie Foxx can't sing but there were better choices out there

Probably the best they could do. My guess is every well known female singer refused to participate given the coverage of Floyd and his history of DV.
