but even if your theory is that he is fighting handpicked fighters here are the handpicked fighters in a different light
Hatton: still regarded as the best 140lb fight in the world, fighting in a weight class where he is undefeated, having only lost to the best fighter in the world.
DLH- NO ONE could have predicted he would have came in as he did.
Diaz- agree with you on this IMO Manny took the easiest lightweight champ but since he is a Top Rank fighter it made the most sense
Morales- NO ONE thought that Morales was done in the rematch. In fact, that fight was even when Manny got to him so it's not like Terrible made a poor accounting for himself. The third fight came out of necessity sicne they were 1-1 in their previous two fights
Barrera- I agree a bit but remember though this was the time when GBP and TR were trying to make things work between promoters and once they came to an understanding about Manny's promotional ties this is the first fight that came to mind.
so while yes two fights IMO weren't necessary there are reasonings behind them but the others were far from being handpicked
