    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.
    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...
