Luckily, Snoop Dogg was able to step up.

The rapper then confirmed the news on his Twitter, writing, “Due to unforeseeable circumstances I won’t be performing tonight at the Tyson/Jones fight. Hope the event is still a success and much love to Triller.”
He did not say what the “unforeseeable circumstance” was, but he did drop his No Ceilings 3 mixtape the night before in the lead up to the planned performance.
