Floyd Mayweather Sr. said Philippine boxing icon Manny Pacquiao played like an amateur during his last fight and won’t be able to beat his son, Floyd Jr.

I DON’T know about you, but I always admired Manny Pacquiao because of the way he fought with unmitigated intensity and a sense of urgency unseen before, not only among Pinoy fighters but in all of boxing.
