Examples Of When Handpicking An Opponent Backfired?

[-Spinal-]

Mosley vs Winky
Forrest vs Mayorga

I strongly disagree. Winky was dubbed the most avoided man in boxing atm. One thing you can't take away from Mosley is that he fought the guys nobody wanted to fight.

Forrest: Had to leave 147 because DLH and Trinidad or no other WW wanted any part of him. Mosley fought him not once but twice.

Margarito: Ducked by DLH,. Just came off his biggest win against someone who won a close fight against Mosley and was #1 WW when he was beaten by Margarito. Mosley not only fought him, he knocked him out.

Wright: Avoided like the plague at 154. Mosley fought him not once but twice.

Judah - Clottey
Chavez - Diaz
Guerrero - Yordan
Oscar - Pacquiao

judah clottey was a crossroads fight for judah and somewhat for clottey he wasnt picked as an easy win for zab but a necessary one for him to remain in the discussion as an elite ww

Pavlik-Hopkins

Judahs camp picking Baldomir as basically a tune-up, I think Baldy was like a 50 to 1 underdog in that fight. I would also say DLH deciding to fight Paq instead of the Cotto-Marg winner, that definitely blew up in his face. Retired.

Larry Holmes-Michael Spinks (which is what the Pac-DLH fight reminded me of)
