MANILA, Philippines – No need to ask Manny Pacquiao how he saw Floyd Mayweather?s farewell fight against Andre Berto yesterday in Las Vegas.
Did he even watch it?
While Mayweather fought Berto inside the ring and tried but failed to entertain, Pacquiao posted a more entertaining video of himself on Instagram.
It was a 15-second clip showing Pacquiao in bed, as he lay on his tummy, resting on his elbows, playing the piano on a phone app.
As the video was about to end, Pacquiao faced the camera, smiled sheepishly and leaned back.

?What I do when I?m bored. Hehe,? he said.
There must be nothing else Pacquiao could do than tinker with his phone while Mayweather danced for 12 rounds against Berto.
Instantly, Pacquiao?s post drew over 2,300 comments ? from his lovers and haters. By the time the fight was over in Vegas, the video had over 30,000 likes.
As predicted, Mayweather, an 18-1 favorite, won by a mile, on points.
It was a typical Mayweather fight.
To experts, Mayweather did just enough to match the 49-0 record of the late Rocky Marciano. He said he?s not after breaking the record, and will soon retire.
Tim Dahlberg of the Associated Press wrote that it was a fight where Mayweather ?was chased but never really tested.?
?Mayweather earned another $32 million for the fight, and once again he didn?t seem to have to work too hard to make it,? the seasoned AP writer noted.
