    not sure whether this should be lounge or general but anyway;

    interesting article on how two rivals are perceived, namely Ronaldo and Messi- but reading it- i couldnt help but think of the two guys in our sport Manny and Floyd, in fact, you could substitute their names and the article would still make sense for the most part,

    A lot of football fans always compare them and turn any barca/real subject in a who is better? debate. they themselves never seem to have hatred towards the other though.
    Messi is obviously more talented than Ronaldo, people like him because of his talent and overall humble attitude while ronaldo is loved for his abilities,looks and hard work.
    Ronaldo is obviously hated though while messi isnt at all, pac/floyd situation is slightly different because boxing is not a teamsport.
    It would be more like fed vs nadal had they never played each other but everyone else I think...
