Laila Ali is an author, a retired athlete and now, a one-time competitor in "The Masked Singer." The athlete's deep voice is one that has earned her numerous fans far and wide, but it has been very hard for listeners to predict her identity.

Just before her identity was unveiled, the judges were allowed to guess who the Panda could be.
