Floyd Mayweather Jr. is still mad at Manny Pacquiao for claiming that a shoulder injury led to the Filipino’s loss in their showdown last May 2 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

This was evident in a video posted on Instagram by Mayweather that showed the unbeaten American confronting and punching a dummy, presumably Pacquiao, and slapping it in the end.

“So Manny, you are here telling people that I didn’t win fair and square. That this little arm is messed up. Is that right…ha? Talk to me,” said Mayweather, who earlier put a hand on the mannequin’s left shoulder and then slapped the dummy twice.

Mayweather later commented on his post that he was just “having fun,  joking and living life.”
