Why Does Manny Get a Pass for Cherry Picking Opponents?

[flexxx145]

You also have to mention Pac avoiding Yuri Foreman.Remember the"Yuri Foreman is to tall"comments And he`s close to the same size Delahoya who Pac fought.

And Pac choose Clottey instead whose a fighter whose known for throwing hardly any punches so he was made to order for Pacquiao.Had Floyd said Yuri is to tall they would have crucified him.


And Floyd fought a fighter that`s taller then Yuri in Diego Corrales.

Haven't you heard there is a new Height limit for WW lol

Every boxer cherrypicks to fights that fit their career at the time. Pac is no different.

Floyd: Fought old De La Hoya after like 3 losses, Hatton above his best weight class of 140, Gatti was toast when he fought Floyd- destroyed from too many battles when he was prime, Baldomir was slower than a snail crossing the highway- champ yes but weakest guy to beat, JMM was 12 pounds heavier than he had ever been and still broke the contracted weight to have a further advantage.

Names on Pac's resume blow the names of Floyd's resume out of the water no contest here

No they don't. Manny's biggest fights with the exception of Cotto included fighters Mayweathers beaten, and most often, with the exception of JMM, he'd beaten them before Pac did. Mosely by himself is a better boxer than everyone on Pacs resume.

Fact is, Pac isn't above criticism.

ducked williams, cotto, clottey, tsyzu, freitas, margarito ,pacquiao and now , bum ass mathew hatton

Its been shown that Floyd never ducked Margarito, numerous times.He would have agreed to fight Marg if Arum would have guaranteed Floyd 10 million for Cotto and 20 million for Oscar.


And tzu ad a long layoff cause of injuries and never called out Floyd.ANd those other fighters you mention, Floyd did not duck them either.

What a ****in hater. Who has Manny ducked or dodged...please explain?

Floyd Mayweather, SSM, and drug testing.

You forgot Roach said SSM was too good for Manny last year?

Thats got nothing to do with the thread, Yes Mayweather cherrypicked also and am sure over 1000 threads in the last 2 years would support that..

This is about Pacquiao and how he also cherrypicks but gets away with it because he's a likeable guy....Just how Mosley gets away with using drug while boxing because people like him.

Most posters around here conveniently forget that bit of information. They ran around screaming Floyd was afraid to fight Mosely ignorant to the fact that Roach said Mosely was too good for Pac without first draining him. The double standards on these boards are nothing short of amazing.

All the underlined is what we care about, Every boxer cherrypicks thats why they have a matchmaker to cherrypick.

Both fighters have cherrypicked and fight opponents they know they can beat. Floyd is taking a big risk by fighting SSM and Pac fights guys who are washed up, past prime, weight drained, or guys he knows have slim to none chance of beating him.

instead of opting to fight margarito or a de la hoya rematch, floyd a cherry picked welter named the big show and then he retired in fear of a grampa oscar or margarito, lol, nyahahahahahahaha
