Was Floyd cheering Manny on in Pacquiao-Morales 2?

[Ben_London]

I'm just rewatching that fight, Floyd and Ellerbie are in one of the front rows and I could be wrong but Floyd seems to be cheering Pacquiao on and encouraging him. Times change in Boxing.

Bear in mind this is just an observation, not a hate or nuthugging thread.

[THE REED]

Probably, but at the time Pac was no threat to Floyds throne..

[Eric Holder]

Floyd used to be a *******

floyd even said in a interview when he retired (before pac hatton) that pac is the best fighter out there

He actually did... I don't know if it was for Pacquiao or if it just was because he was excited about the action... but he def. stood up and cheered... I've seen this too...

Even though Mayweather bad mouths Pacquiao... he has great respect for him and always had (he has it for all his opponents, you will always hear that afterwards)... he stated once that he likes to watch Pacquiao fight...

[El Jesus]

he was. the thing is, morales and floyd for whatever reason never got along, so floyd was happy to see pac do what he never got the oppurtunity to do. regardless, floyd has good rapport with all fighters outside of his own division.

He ain't... whenever I heard him talk about Morales... it seemed that he had respect for him.

yea he did cheer for him and why not,manny is a great fighter and floyd has said it himself

i agree i see a interview with floyd and he was giving morales loads of respect

[johncods]

I think it was more because morales and floyd never got along well... And I think a lot of fighters would enjoy a pac fight..
