I believe even though Manny is a trainer, he is a true boxing fan like us. It is true he let his feelings show on air which is not a real professional thing to do as a commentator, but he may consider himself to be a fan first. I don't think he hates Mayweather, hell even the more vocal tirades against Mayweather on this forum are not done by haters, but by people who expect more from a fighter, claimed by the fighter and many others to be P4P best. It can be hard on a fan when they see so much potential going to waste. Their are so many dream fights Floyd could take but doesn't. It gets so frustrating seeing him pick opponents that many true boxing fans do not really care about. He did it in the past, he should be doing it now as the end of his career is probably not too far away.

There are a lot of fans, not just in these boards, but everywhere who want to see more from Floyd and are not convinced by his bout with Hatton. If you carry around the #1 P4P title, but have not beaten any of the other top guys in your current division, something is amiss. Nobody else at welterweight has done it either, but they avoid the criticism as they are not the #1 face in boxing. That is somewhat unfair to Floyd as it is a lot of weight to carry, and he gets all the criticism that really should be shared by all of them, as i don't see them clamoring to fight each other either.

Which is why the P4P rankings are a crock of shit basically. Most of the guys on the list have not even cleaned out their own divisions, yet get ranked. It really makes no sense. To be even considered as #1, you should at least be the undisputed champion of your division, not just the #1 draw in boxing.
