Fighting Mosley = cherrypicking???

[jtiger78]

i didnt say anything about Floyd's skills as trash i respect his skills but not his attitude...hes making a mockery of our beloved sport by playing to our needs and he deserves to be dissed like this

well i can respect that i guess ur not one of "them" lol

[Mr. Philadel]

at some of yall trying to rationalize..

ya boy is wrong King...dead wrong!!

[hanzoh74]

your the one makin it seem as if there was no way manny could of fought shane instead of cotto so maybe you are micheal koncz since you seem to know so much about manny and his situation

man i think ur the one who is ******ed LOL...u dont need Koncz just to interprets Bob Arum's great plan in cashing in..u get it?? It all BOB ARUM!! still confused??

i didnt say its a legit fight infact i was planning to skip watching this fight.Ived been watching Pac fight since 2006....im against with this fight IMO i want Pac to fight Martinez or Berto...i was just pointing out to the *****s who keeps contradicting themselves

I'm not a "*****"....lol...I'm just a fan of boxing. You're just arguing to argue. I truly don't have a problem w/ Pac fighting Mosley, but he is cherrypicking. And IMO he's entitled to do so given who else is available. Fighting Berto is a good fight for him but won't sell jack and they need to build it up some. Martinez is a str8 up bad fight for Pac. So that leaves Mosley, which no matter how bad it is to true boxing fans, will sell based off of Mosley's name and history. But it is what it is.

usual pacquiao and roach tactics

waiting for fighters on the decline or off a loss to fight them. funny before mosley fought floyd pac has to fight him at 142 now they see and old fading mosley who could get past the 4th round

pactads and filipinos will try and twist that fact and i guess you ought to try and ignore them since all they have going on is manny pacquiao the jesus incarnate

Come on now....don't paint all of us the same color....

I support pac based on his accomplishments and the excitement he brings into the ring....

But that doesn't mean I blindly support whatever he does....

I would much rather have seen him fight Berto or JMM at 140lbs or below.

[fightfan_79]

I find it truly funny how I started this thread based on a conversation with some officers....and it has blown up to more meaningless Pac/Floyd BS.....

And to end the conversation from this morning with the officers....they mentioned nothing of Floyd....LMFAO!!!

man i think ur the one who is ******ed LOL...u dont need Koncz just to interprets Bob Arum's great plan in cashing in..u get it?? It all BOB ARUM!! still confused??

no but that doesn't change the fact that when shane was considered a threat they didn't fight him but now that no one thinks to much of shane a fight is bein made i know you gonna say but shane is not with golden biy no more but so what that doesn't change the fact that manny has not been fighting opponents that are undefeated, on top of the game,ranked #1 in anything or relavent opponents to the sport because honestly shane,clottey and margarito could have not fought another fight and no one would of cared at that point in time the only reason they stood relavent is because manny chose to fight them

Cherrypicking is all about timing.

If Floyd was scheduled to fight Mosley after Pac already beat him and he just had a draw with Mora, what would u say? Cherrypicking?

If Floyd chose to fight Margarito after a KO loss, a year's suspention, and only a so-so performance to make up for it all, (especially after avoiding him in his prime) what would u say? Cherrypicking?

Pac fighting Mosley after he demolished Margarito, what would u say? Cherrypicking? Maybe only after the fight, right?

Pac fighting the #2 p4p fighter after a 2 year lay off only a couple weight classes above where he last fought, after the #2 p4p fighter just got off of a fight of the year KO victory (taking into mind the #1 p4p fighter, just moved up the same amount of weight classes to KO his opponent), what would u say? Cherrypicking?

Funny thing about this last one, Pacquiao was actually about to do this

[namme]

Mosley only has a punchers chance. However that doesn't make him a good opponent or a legitimate contender for the title. When Mosley was on top of the world after beating the snot out of Margarito, Roach said Mosley was too good for Pacquiao. Two years later after he was beaten by Mayweather and tied against a reality show winner, they decided Mosley was past it and ready for Pacquiao.

Roach can say he wants to say, but it doesn't mean that Pacquiao agrees with him.

When Roach wants Maidana for Pacquiao, do you think Pacquiao also wants that fight?

[Dagomba]

Roach can say he wants to say, but it doesn't mean that Pacquiao agrees with him.

When Roach wants Maidana for Pacquiao, do you think Pacquiao also wants that fight?

If Roach thinks a boxer is too much for Pacquiao you bet your ass Arum is not going to match him against said boxer. Regardless of what Pacquiao might think, he knows to listen to Arum. Afterall, Arum's promotions made him a millionare so he leaves the match making to Top Rank. Quit being naive brother.
