The singer took the mic before the fight in Las Vegas on Saturday night to belt out "The Star-Spangled Banner," but his performance was met with a muted reaction from the crowd at the Palms Hotel.
Brown's appearance at the event was also met with criticism from online bloggers, who slammed the decision to give the hitmaker a star turn at a boxing match, following his conviction for assaulting ex-girlfriend Rihanna last year.
And the "Kiss Kiss" star addressed the controversy with a series of posts on his Twitter page.
He writes, "I'm human. How many of u r (sic) perfect? If there is no forgiveness, there is no change... I'm humbled by everything. If I wasn't somewhat sane and loved my fans and music so damn much I would give up, but that's not why I was put on this earth... you'll see!"
The posts have since been removed.
