The Drake as Manny Pacquiao skit for this year's ESPYS Awards is one of the reasons why the Canadian rapper is being touted as the best host yet. An absolutely hilarious and dead on impression of Filipino Jack of all trades, he isn't captured in a ring, but in his own element: the recording studio. Since the boxer is known for his love of singing, it is only natural that Drake would impersonate him singing the hottest song of the year, Frozen's 'Let It Go.'
Sporting a full goatee and straight hair, the Drake as Manny Pacquiao impersonation is sealed with a great accent. Although the actors taking part in the skit are all so serious, the crowd can't help but double over with laughter.
