    Of course he was a huge Pacquiao fan. When asked prior to his fight against Oscar,
    he went " Oh , I love Manny Pacquiao ". When he was no.1 P4P, he was asked who he thought was second. He said, " Manny Pacquaio ". Times have changed since then.

    then, he was thinking he is so way up on the weight divisions that Pacquiao poses no threat. When Pacquiao starts climbing towards his territory he kind of said: "hey, wait a minute, this doesn't look good at all...."

    When Pacquiao finally arrived at 140 & 147, Duckweather started crying the PED version of the proverbial "wolf calling". At this time... time to run away baby, Duckweather does not want any part of Pacquiao. He wished he never came out of retirement. LOL

    Of course. By then, manny was fighting at a lower weight, thus, was not a threat to floyd then.

    Only Floyd knows exactly the level of his admiration [respect] on Pacquiao's skills and ring talent. Problem is, that fact will never be made public. A glimpse of that admiration/respect, however, can be gleaned thru the amount of insecurities Floyd have since Pacquiao's name was push to the top of boxing's P4P rating.

    The most logical reason I can think why pbf cheered for pacman then is his huge bet placed on pacman against morales. the idiot is a gambler! remember?

    Correct me if i am wrong, it was on pacquiao-diaz after fight that mayweather was interviewed the possibility to fight pacquiao in the future and he proudly responded in a kind of "I am way too big for him". And now who's running scared?

    Have you ever stopped to think that Mayweather had a vested interest in it if Pacman wins? As the man said, he likes to gamble, and placing a bet on his guy (or manok in the philippines aka cock) and seeing him win will surely get Mayweather elated and happy.

    well,every one is entitled t o their opinion but i think what the writer wants to point out here is that once upon a time Mayweather was actually being nice to Pacquiao,and their animosity towards each other at present was caused by the media and the attitude of boxing fans like you.I just hope though that there will be a happy ending ,that they'll eventually like each other.

    He never thought that a midget like Manny will hold the P4P throne while he has S4S (Sound for sound ) throne. Definitely, he putted a high stake bet on Manny at that time or perhaps he really likes Manny but he was far to realize that this yellow chump will call him out straight to his face. Manny took the spotlight from him by demolishing great fighters straight on without ducking. That is the start of his insecurity and wanted to grab that spotlight again. What a shame! He is a great boxer but everyone has some doubt if he is one of the best amongst the legends of the sports unless he proves himself worthy by fighting the prime fighters right now. If he does, then respect will going to be abundant to him.

    Back in the days, Pacquiao wins brings alot of money to Floyd...that's reason enough to cheer for. I see nothing wrong about that. Now that Pac is his challenger, it's a whole different level. His reaction is pretty normal to me.

    I have noticed that before already he supported Manny that time coz he knows Manny is 2nd to him coz he was not retired during that time yet he loves to see Mexican fall down coz Mayweather by nature doesn't like like Mexicans coz for him Mexicans have the same styles and he knows how to defeat him that's why he is a big supporter of Manny coz Manny was called mexican destroyer.

    I read an interview with Floyd Mayweather jr on a boxing site and they asked him who was his favourite boxer to watch fight and he said Manny Pacquiao, and since then Pac-man has moved up two weight classes and is the king of the welterweight division and Floyd all of a sudden now hates him!!!!
