According to reports, Manny has intentions to drop a few million on Beverly Hills real estate.

TMZ Sports has learned … Manny and his crew went to scope out the 10,000 square foot estate this past weekend and sources say he “really liked” what he saw. The mansion is insane — 7 bedrooms, 7.5 baths, home theater system, massive backyard and a SICK mancave with a pretty awesome wet bar. Diddy used to live in the home back in the day — and sold it in 2001 for $2.313 million. The new owners renovated the hell out of the place — and now it’s on the market for a cool $12.5 million … pocket change to a fat cat like Manny. (TMZ)

Check out how much rap star 50 Cent is betting on Manny’s fight next month…

According to recent reports, rap star 50 Cent may bet over $1.5 million for boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. to win against Manny in their May 2 bout.

50 Cent went on “The Breakfast Club” on New York’s Power 105.1 FM Tuesday morning to report the two are on speaking terms again after meeting by chance at a Chris Brown show earlier this month. Not only that, but 50 Cent boasted he plans to bet $1.6 million on Mayweather to beat Manny Pacquiao when the two are scheduled to fight on May 2 in Las Vegas. “Champ gonna smoke him,” 50 Cent said, referring to Mayweather, who holds both the WBC and WBA welterweight titles. 50 Cent then went on to describe Mayweather as “super focused,” and said, “It’s gonna look like [the fight] was pumped up for no reason.” (CBS Local)

Footage of Manny working on an entrance theme song recently bubbled online.

The boxer is preparing for his May 2 fight against undefeated Floyd Mayweather by laying down a track titled “Lalaban ako para sa Pilipino” or “I will fight for the Philippines,” which he plans to use as his entrance music. Pacquiao collaborated with composer Lito Camo on the song. (USA Today)

Mayweather announced the big fight after weeks of speculation last month.

“I am glad my decision to meet with Manny and discuss making this fight happen helped get the deal done. Giving the fans what they want to see is always my main focus. This will be the biggest event in the history of the sport. Boxing fans and sports fans around the world will witness greatness on May 2. I am the best ever, TBE, and this fight will be another opportunity to showcase my skills and do what I do best, which is win. Manny is going to try to do what 47 before him failed to do, but he won’t be successful. He will be number 48.” (“Shots”)

  1. I follow boxing and im happy about this fight but i just cant understand how they can call him the 2nd best pound for pound with five loss’s and one of them being very recent….boxing is a any sec sport as in any second you can go from top to bottom….i respect his and all boxer;s craft but he got a lot of loss’s Prince nassim Roy Shane were all left to die once they loss so i think a better person for that spot would be hopkins if loss’s dont count

    • Are you okay ? Pacquiao is the Fighter of the decade !!! not FMJ, not BHop, not Jones and of course not Prince…The only 8 division champion and the only 3 times fighter of the year awardee……Next time before you post, Think first !!!!

      • or you can know what you talking about before you talk….they said pound for 2nd best so that mean floyd is first ….this his biggest pay day so far and he just got knocked a few fights ago he lost the belt….and floyd would not even take the fight cause ol boy be juiced up…he hit the canvas 5 times and what world does that put 2nd best…like i said he got heart and i respect him and all boxers cause of the skill it takes but he is not deserving of the title 2nd best pound 4 pound when hopkins is alive if loss’s dont count…you do know he just lost his belt a while ago right….what can even try to say that will stand aginst he just got knocked out and lost his belt..LOL

          • they said it could generate 500m….i just hope that all that money wont temp the power to tamper with the out come…..thanks for the cosign

          • WOW!!! early insurance policy but it might just be cause he know they gonna make a lot of money…Good Shit Homie!!!

          • I know right. I think how bad Floyd is gonna beat Manny I don’t think the powers that be will be able to do some sneaky crooked shit.

          • think of like this then….500Mill shit even 300mill…how can they pass up a shot at two paydays…what about the rematch?????
            do you remember when roy Jones jr. Loss after moving up…he said i owe showtime a lot….nothing wrong with that along but when said as a answer to a question of why you loss????

            I grew up in the Don King Era of fights so i just skeptical i thought my lakers were kicking ass all them years then later it came out that at least one ref involved in a lot of games was on not calling shit sneaky shit…I hope your right homie!!!!I just dont trust big money

          • All I know is that the Korvalov v Pascal fight was great. I am also happy that NBC is coming with their primetime matches. Mattheyse v Provodikov is going to be a good and Crawford is the the undercard for that one.

          • I agree 110%. We are definitly in for a great couple of months of boxing. Mattheyse vs Provodnikov has fight of the year writing all on it. Crawford is good too. I wonder who he is fighting on the undercard being that top rank does’nt have many 140 pounders.

          • More then likely it will be a “Vanity Fight” for Crawford because his last fights he was the main attraction. HBO probably gave him a little bit extra to be on an undercard. But I am just speculating about the HBO part, but not about Crawford completely destroying who ever this guy is he is going to fight.

      • everything you said does not matter because it come from reporters not boxers themselves not the people but reporters who vote for they want to for there reason….Example (NBA) they pick an mvp every year yet kobe number 3 on the all time list fact 5 rings fact 80 plus only 2nd to wilt only has 1 while nash no rings ever has 2….
        Another example: macklemore knew his album was trash compared to kendrick….but the reporters who vote thought other wise….My point awards dont always go to the best

        Sidenote: those awards were given to pac man i cant take that away but again my thought was does he deserve it or is it just politics….i think its politics….awards dont always tell the truth….by the way all your point are in the first paragraph of pacman wiki page nice try miss me with the slick think first shit the way pacman punchs will miss floyd…..nothing personal at all so sorry if i cam at you harsh it truely just a case of my team is better shit talking…i dont is 2nd best but but i still respect him and every other boxers

        • I Work online, completing various simple jobs which only requires from you desktop or laptop computer and access to internet and I am so happy with it… It’s been six months since i started this And I Earned in Total $36,000… Basicly I profit 80 bucks Every hour and work for three to four h on daily basis.And the best part about it is that you can manage time when you work and for how long as you like and you get a paycheck weekly.

          • you make 80 buck a hour yet you only willing to do it part time …you sr. are a lazy loser….I say Good day!!

    • Yeah I hear what are sayin but PAC isn’t afraid to fight or to loose. Although I do wonder how he is going to fight Mayweather.

      • your a 125% right that i cant never deny pach-man go superdumb hard…Loose or win he always show up and give the people what they paid for and he way more humble…..I cant prove that he ever cheated although that was a concern for Flloyd when they first started to negotiate it was said that flloyd wanted him to be tested night of but at first manny said no because of weakness…..I hope for a fair fight but when you have so much money at stake i think you have to go for a rematch….and how can you sale it if flloyds wins to easy….hey bruh thanks for comment i appreciate that…
