Yesterday Pambansang Kamao Manny Pacquiao announced on his Twitter account that Ashanti, the American singer, "accepted his invitation to sing The National Anthem at his fight with Timothy Bradley Jr". The rematch will be held at MGM Grand Las Vegas in Nevada, where most of Manny's fights were held, on April 12, 2014.

I am so happy that @Ashanti accepted my invitation to sing The National Anthem at my fight with @TimBradleyJr. on April 12. #PacBradley

On the appointed date Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley Jr will face again to fight each other for the second time around to redeem each other's name from what transpired on their first fight back in 2011.Many believed that it was Manny Pacquiao's fight and he should have won it not Timothy Bradley, so make things clearer and to see who will really win (even though it was so obvious) the management of both parties decided to have a part 2 of the said controversial match.
