Mayweather Calls Pacquiao His Employee
Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather would square off again, not in a ring, but on social media.
Mayweather would land the first shot on Tuesday, when he would take to Instagram to call Pacquiao a clout chaser.
“I find it real ironic how every time Pacquiao’s name is brought up in the media, my name is always attached to it,” Mayweather wrote in a post on Instagram. “This man’s entire legacy and career has been built off its association with my name and it’s about time you all stop using my brand for clout chasing and clickbait and let that man’s name hold weight of its own.”
The 40-year-old senator would respond later on Tuesday, claiming the retired boxer attended Pacquiao’s fight with Keith Thurman last weekend to remain relevant.
.@FloydMayweather You come to my fight and then use my name in a post but I’m the one that is trying to stay relevant? 🤔 if you want to be relevant again… #MayPac2

Mayweather then returned to Instagram to say that he was only to supervise his employee.
“Bottom line, I make more money than you; I beat you, then I signed you! I was only at your fight supervising you, my employee, as any real BOSS would do.”
Is that the last word of this rivalry? Will Mayweather come out of retirement to fight Pacquiao to show him up one more time?
