But Mayweather would surely be angry at his rival for the pound-for-pound king title because of one line that Pacquiao also said that hits a raw nerve on Money May who has been ridiculed for his lack of reading skills. That's because in explaining why he's not mad at the latest rant from Mayweather, Pacquiao said,

Besides praying for Mayweather, Pacquiao is also preparing for his Nov 22 fight against another unbeaten American boxer, Chris Algieri, who definitely is an educated person, having a master's degree in nutrition. This explains why despite their ring date, promotion for their bout in Macau is not characterised by trash talk that the multi-millionaire Money May uses to psych out his opponents.
