    I like them both, though I have problems with both as well. Which often times leads to me being labelled a hater of both whenever I criticsize one of them.

            If you're a fan of what Pacman stands for, then its impossible to like Floyd. Pac is about going out there to prove he's the best. A "real" rags to riches story. Floyd on the other hand is living off of what he did a decade ago, and fights only for checks, not bragging rights or to prove he's the best (he said so himself).

            Now u can be a Pac fan, and still admire/respect Floyd's skills, but its hard to like a guy like Floyd. What I dont get is that he chooses to play the villian, yet whines and complains when he gets bashed. Dont play the bad guy, and expect not to get trashed.
            I don't know, that's assuming I believe everything that comes out of Floyd's mouth. I take his little bad guy thing with a grain of salt. Also, I'm not a fan of a fighter's personality, as we can't ever really know a person from watching them in interviews and on television. They create whatever image they want. Now, you can like a boxer's personality, and have it influence your feelings towards them, but if you base your interest in them or their career mainly off of the image they portray, I feel like you're being a bit naive. (Not necessarily you personally.)

            I'm not a fan really of what any boxer stands for. Manny Pacquiao is still just a guy trying to get a check, even if he has a good mentality behind it. He's not fighting for free. Likewise, Floyd does charity work, too- its just not always publicized. I've seen several charity events he's set-up that I've never heard him try and spin in the 24/7 shows and such like they do with Manny. They're trying to make Pacquiao a hero just like Mayweather is playing the villain. It's the nature of boxing.

            As far as this whole 'Manny just fights for the love of the game' - well, we've already been told he's not too keen on taking a smaller split of the Mayweather purse- and even if he took 40%, he'd still be making millions and millions of dollars. Point? It's not just about the fans or the sport even with a seemingly nice guy like Manny. He still stands for himself first and foremost.

              I am a fan of both, I agree reading some posts at the scene shift your feelings a little. But you have got to remember that a lot of fans here are full of ****.
