Floyd sound bites: straight from the horses mouth
0.34 mark. -"once again if my team cherry picks.. "
'It's not about working hard. It's business.'
'I am my own boss. Me, ellerbe, haymon we a team. We work as one.'
So Floyd, when your team cherry picks. You guys work as one, so you cherry pick as one? lol I guess that's the easiest route to an easy paycheck aye. Yup it's amir Khan alright lol
sadly he thinks he will get a million buys. When he forgot that it was canelo on a mexican holiday that pulled him good numbers. This khan fight will give him 600k-700k tops.
Dang! still can't shake it off. He actually said once again when my team cherry picks lol

He did not say "My team cherry picks".Floyds said "if my team cherry picks",the key word is if.Floyds has been fighting guys who are highly ranked,unlike the coming off of losses fighters that PAcquiao be choosing.Nice try but try again.Your attempts at twisting Floyd words is easily exposed.
in 2005 the first morales fight. what is pacquiao alibi of the loss? cant you just give pacquiao the benefit of the doubt that even a tiny amount drawn has a psychological effect on pacquiao. why did he agreed later in 2013? because it was assume that heredia would be training rios. why wont he 2009? same alibi as in the morales loss.
mayweather always got shared pvp whenever he fought someone in top 10 p4p. why wont he give pacquaio a share of pvp just like his previous opponents. 40m flat fee for a forecast 200m earnings(canelo does 150m right?). its 20/80 without pvp shares. do you think its acceptable?
who cares if arum is screwing him.
2 weeks cut off date with post fight drug testing not enough for mayweather.
what if he knows of the pac interview after the morales loss that pac said that he would rather not fight if the blood test is too close. i know its clutching at straws but there's a possibility. floyd and pac maybe suffering on different forms of paranoia. but now pac agreed to random blood test. floyd got new conditions for the fight.
who lie on his team? roach is known to be honest. arum just said that blood test weaken manny in colorful narratives.
LOL...you mean the SAME Freddie Roach who claimed to not know what "a steroid or PED" is even though he trained James Toney and had Justin Fortune around as well as Mr. Dieuretic man Chavez...yet he claimed to know nothing about PEDs. Roach is full of crap and has racial issues as well.
As for Pac's excuses AFTER the first Morales fight, he used every excuse under the sun...from his "clitoris" gloves, to blisters and LATER it was having a blood test....in fact, it is funny that during the first negotiations that there were a lot of varied excuses as well ranging from a fear of blood, needle phobias, it's un-natural, he won't let Floyd "bully" him, etc....odd that the mediator even came out and said Bob and team Pac were telling lies to the media.
Why not have an " I hate floyd so much that..." Thread.
Just saing....it could end half of the thrteads on this site.
Why not let your boy fight what the boxing fans want him to fight and stop making excuses for a grown man. :dance:
First of call , what the hell has Pac done to be " number 1 " ? He got knocked out by Marquez and beat an hand picked fighter( coming of a loss) to make him look good that makes him number 1 ? LMAO. Pac doesnt need Floyd right now , he needs to fight Bradley. Having all said that , do I want to see Pac-Floyd , of course I do.Also Floyd is the highest paid athlete in boxing history , at the last chapter of his career , 8 time world champ in 5 different weight classes so the hard work has been done already. No matter who Floyd fights people will never be happy unless he loses.
and here like the torchbearer of the olympics he puts down his burden, that heavy , cold metal now hopefully rest on its final spot while the followers of this iconic symbol of moving metallic pillar rally and gather around this new found ground zero, marking their line of scrimmage, rabidly ready to viciously attack anyone who even questions the new placement of this holiest of holy artifact.. the goal post !
Yup, the goal post is full of cherries. It's a coveted artifact only meant to be found by true warriors, but the quest for finding the goal post has now been foretold as impossible to be found. The one who holds it has become a major cunt and only fights not for glory, but for easy paychecks.

What is amazing is that people considerCorrales,Canelo, Cotto, Mosely, Oscar,etc all cherry-picks...the fact is, they were coming off of GREAT performances and at the top of their weight divisions.These were all fighters that Floyd was criticized BEFORE the fight and people said he wouldn't fight them...then when he does-you guys b1tch up and down because he made it easy.
Even now, if Floyd fought Pac, he would be criticized for not having the fight a few years back.As much as I want that fight there would be a lot of backpeddling after the results.
You guys want Floyd fighting guys with such an advantage like GGG and Martinez because you know the only shot they have at Floyd is because they are naturally 2 weight classes above Mayweather-that is a testament to greatness, when the only chance someone has to beat him has to be that much bigger.Why don't you guys expect Manny to fight guys 2 weight classes above himself instead of 2 weight classes BELOW?
Floyd has always cherry picked. Its not about fighting people coming off of wins. Who cares that FLoyd fought SSM and DLH coming off of wins, the important factor is that they lost a hundred fights between them and past their primes and not the best p4p fighters.
Floyd is a cherry picker because he don't strike when the iron is hot. He should have fought Pac years ago. He was accused of ducking DLH and SSM and being scared, because he was not doing any fighting at all. But fighting them is no big deal they were last generations greats and he got them at the end of their careers as did Pac.
But at least Pac moved up weight to fight them.
He has moved up 5 weight classes. If being an atg or p4p fighter depended on jumping around in weight, then a HW fighter wouldn't have a shot at that label.
My point is that people are content with Pac fighting guys 2 weight divisions below him-in fact they are begging for a 5th JMM fight, yet they actually wanna make a Floyd match with guys like GGG, Martinez, etc...it shows you they only wanna see a guy at a disadvantage-not a fair fight.
So in these guys eyes, it would be good for a much larger guy to cherry pick Floyd who is 2 weight classes below (on fight night maybe 3-4!) but we know damn well that if Floyd did this the critics are rampant. Sounds hypocritical to me.
Pac has moved up more so than Floyd, so I don't see your point. Pac is still fighting top p4p fighters whereas Floyd hasn't in his last 3 or 4 fights. So what otherworldly thing is Floyd actually doing? Its one thing us asking Floyd to fight GGG and Sergio, but what is Floyd actually doing? What is the reality.?
what an absolute joke this guy is. if you are still buying this guys fights then you are an idiot.
Haven't you heard? After telling everyone he cherry picks. He finally brings out his final card. He doesn't want to deal with arum. I'm losing count here how many excuses has he brought up just to put a wall between him and Pac. Seems like a long list, but the trump card. Arum hehehe! Final excuse to cap all excuses. Smells like a pussay talks like a pussay.
The guy is so obvious. He's too spooked just hearing Pac's name gives him shivers.
I think it is mainly because our older generation of great fighters always moved up in weight even when they did not need to. Even though Floyd is a legit 140lber fighting at 147 he could still possibly fight at 160. If you claim you are the GOAT then you have to mirror or surpass our older generation of great fighters who went above and beyond to prove their greatness. Floyd is a all time great fighter, I believe nobody takes anything away from his boxing skills but with that, most fans and haters believe he has the ability and skill to fight fighters who out weight him by 15-20 lbs and still come out on top. Yes he has proved he is one of the best technical boxers ever but in this current state of boxing there are no real match make ups where anyone can say he is biting off more than he can chew unless he moves up. He does not have to move up don't get me wrong but to claim your the GOAT I believe you have to do as other proven GOAT fighters have done and fight people you have no business fighting. Same goes for Pacman. Or he could just fight pacman take that win and retire. 2013 Pacman is easy pickings vs a game 2009 pacman.

Pacquiao cherry picked Rios
yes pac did.
pac and floyd chose their opponents.
you do realized that every fight pac and floyd fights at 147, the odds will always favor them. so basically pac and floyds fight at 147 is always a cherry pick.
the only non cherry pick fight is if they fight each other.
statements:
1.pac will be favored againts any welterweight not name floyd
2.floyd will be favored againts any welterweight not name pac
at that 2 statement let us derived some questions.
1. is pac not relevant?
2.is pac not the best fight for floyd at welterweight?
3.does pac needed to fight marquez or bradley to get to mayweather?
4.is khan better opponent than pac?
if that is really true canelo got scammed big time. biggest pvp ever and you dont have a share on it. floyd can fight anybody but will not make that number unless canelo and pac.
canelo should promote his own fight because GBP screwed him up.
well if it is really true!
If that is true, he just conned canelo from taking the fight. Most of the boxing fans who bought that fight are Mexicans who thought canelo would pull it off. After all he is big in Mexico and a star in his own right plus the fact it's on a Mexican holiday and he gets no ppv love? Wow! If that is true Canelo just got robbed bigtime by Floyd. Everyone knows canelo pulled in a minimum 1m ppv buys just from the Mexicans viewers alone. This guy is robbing everyone blind.
Good thing this video showed up and exposed Floyd for what he truly is an A1 cherry picker.
According to Floyd, Canelo did not receive any PPV
if that is really true canelo got scammed big time. biggest pvp ever and you dont have a share on it. floyd can fight anybody but will not make that number unless canelo and pac.

well if it is really true!
There is no dimwit boxer in the face of this earth that will admit that he cherry picks his fights. Floyd is the first. Dang! He thinks cherry picking is the right way to end his career.
Dang! Daylight robbery baby! He says it in front of his fans and he expects gullible fans will find a way to agree with him. No way to justify this really. A boxer is a modern day gladiator who constantly challenges himself. Cherry picking doesn't belong in boxing.
The sport dares you to be great and asks a fighter to step up not put on an exhibition match. If you want to be called great step up Floyd.
Floyd does not belong in the same breath as Robinson. Cherry picking are for spineless c u n t s. . Just being real.if your into cherry picking mode better just retire Floyd.
Floyd has opened his mouth and he has exposed himself to what we know all along. Cherry picking has always been his way. He has exposed himself for saying it. No way out of here really. Boxing now truly see's what he is all about. A duck.
You have the nerve to talk about this guy after he delivered thorough, comprehensive a$$ whoopins to two of your 3 favourite fighters? lol He might as well be your daddy. We should call you Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s Jr.
alright kid, talk to me when you have grown up.
Floyd is a serial cherry picker in the worst possible way. The way he does that is not fighting often like everyone else, that way he can choose when he wants someone on his resume.
Im sure by the end of his career, Floyd will have victories over Sergio Martinez, Pacman, and GGG on his resume, but dont let that fool you with Floyds fans saying he beat Sergio, Pac etc etc etc.
Floyd should have fought Sergio when he was hot, soon after Sergio beat Pavlik. But Floyd has hung around long enough and put the fight off now that Sergio has looked vulnerable against 3 brits.
Floyd will have victories over Pac which will have floyd fans saying how can Floyd be accused of cherry picking, ignoring that Floyd should have beat Pac way before JMM got the chance to.
Floyd is a serial cherry picker.
