lets put it this way.
floyd is on his 8 to 9 straight cherry picked fight, pacquiao has one or two. I think that speaks for itself.
Marg, Mosely, Catchweight Cotto, Rios @ WW, JMM @ WW x 2, Bradley @ WW :lol:
Differences is Pac's cherry picks failed and one of them knocked his ass the fuq out.
Love him or hate him, no one been able to upset the odds against May.
You know, alphabet soup titles don't mean much nowadays. Most people know who the real champ of the division is. This is just like what larry does. he names all the paper belts may's opponents have collected (according to floyd belts only collect dust)
thats like calling robert steiglitz the SMW Champion. he is A smw champion. THE SMW champion is andre ward.
Great. So you agree Manny was not an 8 weight champion. :boxing:
That was a brilliant performance by Mayweather, even I thought that Canelo had a chance to make things close in that fight but it didn't turn out that way.
How do you cherrypick a champion in a higher weight class who a lot of people thought you wouldnt fight?
You must were one of the people that said he wouldnt fight Canelo, and how he was scared then the fights get signed, and you hope he loses. He actually wins, now its a cherrypick.
Floyd signs fight, wins fight, detractors make excuses....rinse and repeat
This is what Pac haters do to. See Cotto fight.
The truth is, both Pac and Floyd make good fighters look average. I'm a Pac fan but only a retard would deny Floyd's skills.
everyone should watch fights more than once, especially close decisions...
You are correct, however this fight was not close in any way, shape or form.
Saw the live ppv fight floyd v canelo and thought it was kinda dull, saw it a second time and witness a boxing clinic.
Roger May would be proud of you right now.
It was incredibly boring because floyd has a effeminate style. That means he fights like a woman
And it wasn't a clinic. Canelo won undisputably at least 4 rounds.
A clinic is when you dominate your opponent by seriously hurting him or clearly winning at least 10 of the rounds ala Pacquiao-Rios
Nah a clinic is when your opponent cant literally do sh*t Pacquiao overwhelms people but he does not put on "boxing" clinics, he was overwhelming the sh*t out of certain someone then...

A clinic is when you see a boxer who by whatever means is hitting the other guy at will and not being touched just dominating through 12.
You're serious?
Floyd:
Canelo - JMW - WBC, WBA and Ring Champ - coming off of Trout win
Guerrero - WW - 4 division champ, interim WBC title - Coming off of Berto win
Cotto - JMW - WBA champ - Coming off of Marg win
Ortiz - WW - WBC champ - Coming off of Berto win
Mosley - WW - WBA champ #3 P4P - Coming off of Marg win
Pac:
Rios - WW - Coming off of Alvarado loss
Marquez - WW - KO'd Pac
Bradley - WW - decisioned Pac
Marquez - WW - MD
Mosley - WW - Coming off of loss to Mayweather and draw with Mora
Man I can go on. There is really no comparison here.
Canelo. Beats Trout. Catchweight of 152
Guerrero. Fought Berto and Aydin? Mandatory for WBC title
Cotto. Didn't beat anybody notable at 154. Mayorga? Won the belt from Yuri foreman? Gives Floyd his toughest fight to date.
Ortiz. Sucker punched in round 4. Beats Berto quits against Maidana
JMM. Moved up 2 weight classes. Cheated on the scales
Mosley. Shot vs Floyd and Manny. Nearly KOs Floyd in round 2
You're serious?

If you can downplay Floyds last five opponents then you will murder Pacs last five opponents. Go ahead I can't wait to read what right about them
shane mosley was a cherry pick as well for pacquiao.

LOL. when did a berto min actually mean something. everybody knows he was an HBO hype job.
Canelo is young, green unproven, which great JMW has he actually beaten to be a legacy builder.
Mosley? -the 39-39 year old who was preparing to fight andre berto before fighting floyd. The margarito he fought was clearly out of his game and mentally spent since the nazim muhhamad incident.
Cotto? was in tons of war when floyd finally had the testicular fortitude to finally fight him. Got his nose bloodied as well.
MENTAL giant Ortiz who he KO'ed with a sucker punch. yeeey
R. Guerrero who beat the post ortiz berto. LOL

how the fck was it a cherrypick when it broke monetary records of boxing history?

cherrypicking = pick an opponent you know you could easily beat when there are more sensible fights available. = floyd vs canelo.
I bet you think Pac vs Provodnikov is a good fight but Mayweather vs Provodnikov is a cherrypick
