Floyd is jealous of Manny...

[Ron Swanson]

If you "love" Pacquiao so much learn his name. Your armchair psychology is flawed but hate on and you'll come to understand jealousy well.

Take it like this, Beanflicker:

We "watch" Money Mayweather.... but.....

We "LOVE" Manny Pacqioua.

I enjoy the Mayweather showcase... and respect it a great deal.... but I LOVE WATCHING A MANNY PACQIUOA FIGHT!!!

Bob Arum and the IRS really love Pacquiao

You see, That's what I'm saying. Manny has no control over his career. His is Arum bitch and does what he is told. What fighter would fight JMM 5 fucking times. It's because they are both own by Arum. A guy who Floyd beat the shit out of. I hear what you guys are saying. I would agree that Manny is loved by more people. On the other hand Floyd knows this is a business and more people will pay to see you lose than win. So I can't see how Floyd is jealous when he's folding the paper like a mofo.

I get that. I would rather watch a Pacquiao fight than a Mayweather fight. And Pacquaio seems like the much nicer guy outside of the ring.

But if you think Mayweather is jealous of Pac, you're nuts. He has a better footing in the sport and a much better financial situation (which came from being hated).

Floyd is exactly where he wants to be in the sport. Manny is the guy playing catch-up.

That's it, man.

The truth is, every professional athlete in sports today would love to be in Mayweather's position. The fact is, pretty much all major athletes are exploited. Even ones that are making multi-millions are really only seeing a small fraction of the money they actually generate.

Floyd has leveraged himself in the sport where he is getting the lion's share of the money he generates.

Floyd is a dick who loves to be hated and loves to be rich. Well, he's plenty hated and plenty rich, so I don't see why he would be jealous of anyone.

Because deep down he just wants to be loved

Bob arum is jealous of oscar and floyd.

Floyd and manny are not jealous of each other in the slightest.

Manny is very likeable but floyd is not.

Manny is always the same but floyd can turn it on for the cameras to make more money thats one of the reasons why he is the highest paid athlete..EVER!

Even if manny left top rank tomorrow he would make so much more than he is making now so can someone please tell me why pac will never leave bob arum once contract is over?!

[Max Power]

He sure is jealous of him bud. Jealous because all the money and bitches in the world can't make ppl like him as they do Manny!

[FinitoElDinamita]

There is no way that Floyd isnt at least a little bit jealous of Manny.. Even with all that money, he knows that people love Manny and as a prideful guy, that has to get to him deep down inside..

It's human nature..

What a completely stupid topic. Since when does a prize fighter want to be loved? He wants to be remembered , relevant or great. All you PAC Nuthuggers can have a Pac lovefest orgy .. PAC fans are mostly bandwagon fans new to boxing . Definitely not leaders , leaders make sound decisions and speak with wit. PAC fans speak in fantasy terms and deny facts when presented. Like Pac's next opponent: easy look for the guy with a marque name coming off a loss like in 80 % of his cherry picked fights. So it's probably the Kahn / Broner loser. Could be the winner as well as neither has power to deal with.

I'm sorry my friend but I disagree. In the p4v numbers it's not even close. Floyd is the biggest name in boxing. Plus Manny has a slave contract with Arum. Floyd is free to do what he wants. If anyone is jealous it's Manny.

We're not talking about PPV numbers, we're talking about global appeal and likability. Which makes it even worse for Floyd- he sells ppv's, which is all that matters to him. But we still talk about Manny.

Well I'm English and living in England, I appreciate and respect both fighters, but imo Mayweather is awesome, and on another level to Pac . . I really like Mayweather and what he stands for too . . he turns other fighters into very rich people.

Maybe I'm being a little naive in thinking that win lose or draw, surely any boxer in their right mind would wanna fight and earn the kinda money a bout with Mayweather would bring in? . . and if anything I believe Mayweather to be a victim of his own success re who, what, when, and where to fight.

I cant see how or why Mayweather would be jealous of Manny (as good as Manny is or has been), I would have thought Mayweather would be far more focused on the serious issues other than to have time for, or to allow jealousy to creep under his skin, I'm thinking he'd be far too professional to either allow or to be bothered about that kinda thing, tho again that's just my humble opinion.

However, I do feel the debate is stronger and stands up better the other way around . . I could see an argument for Manny being a little jealous of Floyd re his achievements and undefeated status alone. that would make more sense to me.....

^^^.... The only thing Manny talks about when Floyd Mayweather comes up is if whether or not Floyd wants to fight or not??

But everytime you bring up Manny's name to Floyd, a whole HEAP of blandishments, negative comments, backhanded insults and petty little tirades start to follow. Petty shit if you ask me.

That's because he is not allowed to speak by Arum and also his lack of command of the English language. Get off your knees and praying to your midget messiah

What was stupid about my post, dummy?

Petty Shit indeed, but surely neg comments and blandishments etc, etc don't make you a jealous person . . it could also mean your just creating press interest or adding to the build up of a potential fight . .

We all know how it is, re the creating of, and or the building up of hype . . and it's mostly done to generate more interest from the layman and fan alike, and be it positive or negative chat re an opponent it can, and often does generate more money come fight time.

Otherwise Ali would have appeared to have been jealous of countless opponents wouldn't he re backhanded insults and petty little tirades etc...

What exactly are you using to quantify these things?
(Other than fanboy tinted speculation)

[El Kabong]

Floyd is completely jealous of Manny....





Floyd's never had that restful of a nap!






(not that I care for either...just surprised nobody utilized the obvious put down)

[fan johnny]

Who gives a shit about soap opra crap? They live on different sides of the planet and have completely different persona worlds.

The only thing that really matters is if they face each other in the ring. Noone can prove Floyd is a Duck. But, if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a .... duck!
