Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather aren't on the best of terms right now. Earlier this week, Pacquiao referred to Mayweather as "not educated" during an interview. And Mayweather responded by telling a group of reporters that he's not going to fight Pacquiao unless he agrees to join Mayweather Promotions. So when TMZ Sports caught up with Pacman yesterday, we weren't expecting him to say anything nice about Money Mayweather.

However, after the TMZ Sports cameraman asked Pacquiao a weird question about his favorite post-fight meal, he also asked him about the lawsuit that Mayweather's ex-fianceé Shantel Jackson just filed against him. And somewhat surprisingly, Pacquiao didn't take the bait and use it as an opportunity to throw a shot at Mayweather. Instead, he revealed that he's going to "pray for" Floyd in light of the allegations that were made in the lawsuit.

You could argue that that in and of itself was somewhat of a shot. But Pacquiao didn't sound like he was taking aim at Mayweather. So we'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he was putting his personal feelings for Mayweather to the side for a second after hearing what Mayweather and Jackson are going through right now.

Watch the clip above to hear Pacquiao talk briefly about Jackson's lawsuit.
