    It seems most Mayweather fans are about as insecure as he is...but hey maybe this is part of the attraction n' all. It's kinda like a pathetic little support group in that people go there not necessarily to be supported but to see others in the same ****-shape as themselves and feel less alone.

    Probably both. As a former Olympic Gold Medallist in 7 different sports, I can tell you that sometimes nerves bring the best out of you.

    Pacquiao is always like that at face off. But what you see from Floyd is not typical Floyd(he is nervous).

    No... he kept looking away because Mayweather's cousin was screaming trash talk at him. That's why he was laughing. Could you not hear him?

    That's what was distracting Manny. Heck, it was distracting me when I was watching. The dude was next to Floyd screaming, "TBE!!! TBE! GET EM! WE GUNNA GET EM! Coming for you! Taken that belt!" etc. That's why Manny looked away from Floyd and nodded his head w/ a laugh. It wasn't just the cousin either. A lot of members on the money team were yelling at Pacquiao as well.

    All of these nervous energies will wear off after round 1.
    So no reason to be carried away really.

    Mayweather always the safe pick, but Manny's got the style.

    It really just depends on whether or not Manny's feet are as quick as they need to be to make Floyd miss AND if Manny's feints trigger Floyd to throw.

    If I see both of those things happen in the first round, then I'll mentally change my pick.

    Yea never mind the thousands of other people screaming in the crowd right... In a stare down you stay focused on your opponent. If manny keeps his eyes on mayweather when they're going through the rule in the center of the ring then I will chalk it up to distractions, until that it's nerves. Mayweather looked intense and gave a mean stare. He's very serious.

    oh, you better know Manny is going to stare at him. This is when Pacquiao won't be smiling too. Other circumstances he's happy go lucky...Mayweather is going to be looking into the eyes of a demon tomorrow and wondering where the nice Pac from yesterday went. The dude turns into a WARRIOR.

    some people just find it silly. For today though, it was just distractions from floyd's team. it was nothing that floyd did or how manny felt.
