Is Pacquiao now going to cherry pick his opponents?

If manny fights twice more, beating mayweather and marquez, that will be an EPIC career. Truly epic.

Pac's proved enough in my eyes so if he wants to cherry pick his opponents as you put it so be it.... Co-sign, I mean what do you want him to do now, fight Bernard? Oh wait...

Which experts predicted tough fight in the Hatton fight? Roach does know how good his fighter is so why now all of the sudden is he trying to give him a huge advantage over everyone he fights? Also Arum and Roach may pick the fighters but they cant do anything until Pac signs them so he really decides who he fights. Almost the entire boxingscene staff for one.. :grumble: Roach wants to do what is best for his fighter. He doesn't want Manny to get hurt and ruined by lack of judgment. Mosley, Cotto and Mayweather aren't even Manny's size. Would you give Manny more credit if he went down and cleared out 130, 135, 140 divisions and defended his titles until he retired or took a chance and fought the best at a catchweight that both parties agree to?

Maybe I shouldnt have used cherry pick but I mean is he now only going to fight if he has the bigger advantage to win? To be on the top of the ATG you have to take dangerous fights and win them. If he fights any of the 3 i mentioned at 140-144 then he has a huge advantage because they will end up like DLH all weight drained and weak. Going by this statement, I'm assuming you have that much hate for Floyd.

Roach does know how good his fighter is so why now all of the sudden is he trying to give him a huge advantage over everyone he fights? 2) pac officially weighed 138 lbs against hatton just a few weeks ago. when was the last time cotto/mosley/pbf officially weighed 138 lbs??? 4) unless cotto/mosley/pbf agrees to 142, this fight shouldn't even be discussed. Get down to 142 lbs or GTFO and fight mosley 5) Cotto/mosley is a MW on fight night and Pac is a WW on fight night. IS THAT FAIR??? 6) pac officially weighed 142 lbs against dlh. when was the last time cotto/mosley/pbf officially weighed 142 lbs??? Also Arum and Roach may pick the fighters but they cant do anything until Pac signs them so he really decides who he fights. roach says 2 fights left for pac then he's gonna retire. 1) fight floyd 2) fight jmm

I give Pac nothing but credit for jumping up all these weight classes and winning all these titles. But now is he going to cherry pick his opponents like Mayweather? Roach says he does not want him to fight at 147 again, but he did it for DLH so why not Cotto or Mosley. 1) roach said the dlh fight at 147 was a ONE time deal 3) roach never intended for pac to campaign at WW Roach even said prior to DLH bout that he could not pull the trigger and he would have to drain himself to get to 147 leaving him weak, which was true. nobody forced dlh to sign the contract buddy I don't consider that a cherry pick becaue that was a huge leap from 135 to 147 which he had never done before, but now he seems like he will only take fights he knows he has the best chance of winning. roach says 2 fights left for pac then he's gonna retire. 1) fight floyd 2) fight jmm Even Hatton was a pretty easy pick because he hasnt been the same since Mayweather,the speed advantage of pac and since he has no defense. Roach even said he would knock him out in 3 so he knew that would be an easy fight for Pac. LOL FAIL!!! Styles makes fights I still love Pac but I can't put him up there with the top 10 ATG like some people think unless he fights tough fights like Mosley, Cotto, or Mayweather with no catch weight so it is even on both sides. 1) roach said the dlh fight at 147 was a ONE time deal 2) pac officially weighed 138 lbs against hatton just a few weeks ago. when was the last time cotto/mosley/pbf officially weighed 138 lbs??? 3) roach never intended for pac to campaign at WW 4) unless cotto/mosley/pbf agrees to 142, this fight shouldn't even be discussed.

So by your logic, as long as Roach says it's going to be a hard fight for Manny people will give him credit despite most boxing experts predicting tough fights in both Oscar and Hatton. Maybe Roach just knows how good his fighter really is? Also, Arum and Roach pick Manny's opponents, so Manny can't technically "cherry pick". Which experts predicted tough fight in the Hatton fight? Roach does know how good his fighter is so why now all of the sudden is he trying to give him a huge advantage over everyone he fights?
