          Manny Pacquiao

          -Barrera
          -JMM (who a lot of people didn't want to fight)
          -Morales
          -Morales II (after losing in a war, he fought him again)
          -JMM II (after many people thought Marquez won, Pacuqiao took a risk and fought him again)
          -ODLH (considered a horrible cherry pick at the time since DLH had gotten titles at MW and Pacquiao only had 1 fight at LW)
          Miguel Cotto (even with the CW it was considered a big risk)
          Margarito(even after a lose Margarito had a huge size advantage)
          Bradley (Young prime undefeated boxer with good technical abilities)
          Marquez IV (the 3rd fight was a cherry pick but the 4th wasn't even with a size advantage facing a guy that had arguably beat him 2-3 times was a risk)

          Pacquiao =10


          Floyd Mayweather

          -Hernandez (Floyd's age and first title fight)
          -Corrales
          -Castillo II (After arguably losing to Castillo he rematched him)
          -ODLH (moving up in weight, not that big of a risk)

          Floyd = 4

          that's pretty much it. Only Trout, Martinez or Canelo fights would be risks.
          Guerrero wouldn't. Maybe that speaks of Mayweather's skills and greatness or his great cherry picking skills + hype. Like trying to make a shot Cotto seem 2nd prime'd and undefeated, calling Ortiz the quitter a "Young hungry Lion"etc

                    LMAO @ DLH, Bradley and Marg for Pac. Floyd toyed with Marquez so that leaves only 4 for Pac.

                    Not to mention Floyd fights them coming off wins not losses like Pac.

                    Floyd>
