    Why Does Manny Get a Pass for Cherry Picking Opponents?

    Honestly, I'm curious. Around these boards other boxers are constantly bashed about cherry picking, but no one, Pac fan or otherwise can claim Team Pac has done any different from these fighters they claimed have taken the easy road?

    For example, Pac hardly gets any criticism for not fighting Mosely when his camp openly ducked him. I don't get it?

    Same for Raheem. Raheem dominates Erik Morales for 11 out of 12 rounds, and instead of fighting Raheem, Manny fights a shot Morales.

    You want to talk about cherry picking?

    By Roach's own admission DLH was a dead man walking whom no longer desired to fight when he was matched up against Manny. He was literally drained and dehydrated, and this came straight from the mouth of Pacs camp.

    Cotto? Again by team Pacs admission, Cotto was damaged goods who'd had his career ruined by Margarito. Did that stop them from fighting and hyping the fight? Nope.

    Hatton? Again, by Team Pacs own admission, he'd been ruined by Mayweather, and was coming off a fight where he'd been brutalized by Lazcano. They still fought him.

    Clottey? I'll give Manny credit for the fight, but everyone in boxing knew what was coming. Everyone expected Clottey to shell up and take hits, he was taylor made for Pacs style.

    Whoever cares to post the video evidence, please do.

          video evidnce is not needed mate, youve hit the nail on the head.

          Hoya - not made 147lbs for over 7 years
          Cotto - pac/roach demanded he come in at 145lbs, beat up by marg, tough fight with clottey
          Clottey - doesnt throw anything,plays into pacs hands

            I think his only cherrypicking move I have been critical of is fighting David Diaz over Casamayor and fighting Cotto over Shane.

                    Because most people stick with what's popular at the time and support it. That's goes for most things in life. Right now in Boxing it's Pac. Fact of the matter is 85% of the people who post on here are *******s. Just look at their post history. They discuss nothing put Pac, or Bash Mayweather. Other than that the only other place you'll see them post is in the lounge talking about pointless topics that have nothing to do with the sport. That or the Pinoy lounge. Try having a conversation with them about boxing history, or mention a fighter as far back as the 80's and they disappear like roaches when the light come on.
