In a wide-ranging interview on the Pivot Podcast, Mayweather commented on a potential Pacquiao exhibition. Mayweather said, “When Manny Pacquiao spoke about that fight, he shouldn’t have. There’s a time and a place for everything.

“I’m not going to say he’s right or wrong. Just by him saying my name, I got a cheque for $4 million. He said my name when he wasn’t supposed to.”

Mayweather also criticised Pacquiao for calling him out when they were in their respective primes. “Remember, he (Pacquiao) told everyone that he would dethrone me. Did it happen? Absolutely not. Was he easy? Absolutely.”
