MANILA, Philippines – Boxing legend Bernard Hopkins said he does not like how undefeated fellow American boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. carries himself in public.

Hopkins said that Mayweather flashing his money in public sends a wrong signal to boxing fans.

“You don't see Steve Jobs -- God rest his soul -- talking with a stack of money on the phone. He never showed his wealth because his wealth was who he was, not what he had,” he said in ESPN.com.

Hopkins, the oldest boxer to win a world title at age 46, said Mayweather should be careful with the image he’s portraying.

“He has the power like Jim Brown had in his era. He has the power like the great Ray Leonard had. He has the power like Ali had, when he said, ‘Ain't no Vietcong ever called me n--.’ Everybody doesn't get this opportunity,” said the boxing legend.

Still picks Floyd over Pacman
Hopkins, however, still picks Mayweather to win over Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao.

He maintained that Mayweather has the boxing style that can defeat Pacquiao.

“Well, he (Pacquiao) beat Shane Mosley. Manny Pacquiao can flat-out fight, but he has fought mostly Mexican fighters, and their styles are different from the way we are taught to fight in our culture,” said Hopkins.

“Mayweather has a style to beat Pacquiao,” he added.
