    Both Floyd and Manny are winners in life. There is no arguing that. Win, lose, or draw on May 2nd doesn't change the success they have had as individuals during their careers and in their life.

    Shoot, if I was making $80-$120 million in a night, I'd feel like a winner too. LOL... Ear to ear grin 24/7 with that kind of cash!

    Yeah, but it wouldn't necessarily make it true. Floyd's a convicted criminal with a dysfunctional family and no friends.

    You'd expect him to be happy because that's the perception of what people think money can bring but you can see clearly Floyd isn't.

    Maybe, maybe not. You could make the same argument for Pacquiao. Does he have "friends?" Or "leeches?" I think it's a difficult problem for men like that to tell if people are genuine/sincere or just hanging on because of their status and wealth.

    Whether Floyd is truly happy or not, I couldn't tell you. I don't associate with the man personally, and that's the only way I could make such a judgment accurately. I'd have to hang out with the guy to really know for sure.

    Either way, you can't argue about their success as individuals. They are winners. Whether that success translates into happiness mentally is an entirely different discussion. Because I agree with you on that point: Money and success does not necessarily equal happiness.

    Funnily enough you will find the most succesful people in life are the ones who understand what they could lose.

    No boxer can seriously say that they have never thought of losing, that is bravado talking. That not to say they will go into a fight thinking they will lose, but in preparation they know exactly what is at stake.

    Pac is way ahead Floyd this aint even funny. Pac's inner cirlce are comprised of people he grew up before he was famous like Buboy his boyhood friend since 8yo, his brother Bobby, his wife, etc etc.

    Just a few days ago he gave a mitsubishi lancer to someone who trains his kids in sports. Someone who's been with him since 16yo.

    The point is: You don't know who Mayweather has in his life or if he's happy behind closed doors. You can only know that by being around the man on a personal level. Same goes for Pacquiao.

    Anything else is pure speculation. You don't know either of them personally and don't hang out with them. You're an outsider speculating on their happiness. It's kind of ridiculous actually to make any assertion one way or the other. None of us have a clue, none of us are a part of their life.

    It's really a useless discussion that shouldn't even be started. That's basically my entire point.

    My word you guys seem to hang on to every utterance mayweather says does or reported to do more than your own fan paciou,why don't you just see as two men fighting in the ring,but no you guys really expose your hatred,you spend most of your day hating and conspiring and wishing bad vibes,your the kind of people that I was told a a young man to keep away from,what clear about this fight is not just the two boxers it's the casual fans that are on the bandwagon and there true feelings,their inner darker side like witches around a couldron throwing in all kinda nasty things in the pot and stirring it,most you guys should really take a look in the mirror and ask your self I'm I really watching a good fight or am I really consumed with jealousy rage and deceit lies and hatefulness
    How much has been real boxing talk so far ....not much just hate ,,,,but what may people fail to get is some people know it kills you inside and they thrive on your hate so in burns you even more,,, this time it will burn even longer
    See you guys on the 2nd
