Academy Award winning actor Cuba Gooding Jr. was the latest celebrity to get involved in the Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao mania.
Pacquiao himself posted a promotional video on Twitter featuring Gooding giving his take on the May 2 megabuck fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
“They’ve captured the consciousness of not just America, but the world,” Gooding said in a 14-second video. “Everybody wants to see this fight. It’s about damn time.”
“Cuba Gooding Jr. drops by the Wildcard to share his thoughts about #MayPac @hboboxing @trboxing https://t.co/PHgULYmT13,” Pacquiao wrote along with a link of the video.
Hollywood action star Liam Neeson and British actor Theo James of the Divergent series had already said they will be pulling for Pacquiao to beat Mayweather
