Nick Cannon will be making his boxing debut as a ring announcer (!) on September 8 for the Chad Dawson-Andre Ward fight in Oakland, California. Cannon hooked up with the latter recently for an informal conversation on discipline, humility and “ring announcer swag.” Of course, some have already rolled their eyes at Cannon’s inclusion in this event. I’m actually intrigued to see how he does. It’s not like he’s actually going to be calling the play by play. Hell, maybe Nick can work some further crossover magic and get his better half to sing the national anthem.
