I think we all can agree Ortiz was a cherrypick.

[Elotero]

What threat? Ortiz has no speed, footwork, can't move his head if his life depended on it and no heart. Rating his skills from 1-10, I'd say -10. He swings like an orangoutang and is there to be hit. Floyd will have a field day with this guy. Floyd's accuracy will be in the 80% range.. Lets come down to earth please

Floyd doesn't pick opponents he can't beat. Floyd knows this and Ortiz will get exposed like a rookie he is

This is absolute bull****. This kind of biased **** gets you on the ignore.

Of course its a cherry pick. Everyone knows it. Only the hordes of minimum wage, uneducated idiot Floyd fans won't admit it.

Ortiz quit against Maidana, should've lost to Peterson, and had ONE, just ONE good win over Berto, who is untested and over-rated himself.

Ortiz has ZERO boxing skills. He has NO JAB. And mediocre feet, which is why Maidana was able to catch him from the very beginning. Floyd is notorious for cherry picking, thats all he does, duck and avoid, then cherry pick.

I know some of you got carried away with the COMPETITIVE war with HBO protected berto. and you missed retirement queen floyd and just is happy to see his lazy ass fight again. cheers NSB the best damn forum in the world.

Well, I tell you - it is some cherry picking I could get used to... especially when I see the P4P list...

1. Pacquiao - fights an 37 year old who we already know will be looking at 144 like well...

2. Martinez - Barker... well...

3. Donaire - 36 year old Narvaez...

4. Marquez - heads up to him... moving up a weight class to fight the best pound for pound king...

5. Klitschko - Mormeck? Seriously?

I say hell... when I look at that I have to say I like Mayweathers cherry picking - young, hungry fighter - top rated - I'm looking forward *smile*

outside of pac and martinez its the best fight to take right now, ive given up on floyd pac its a waste of mental energy... i dont think floyd will ever fight serg soooooo....ortiz a cherry pick? naa... this isnt the greatest fight ever but at least ortiz is coming off a win... i guess

[Froghead99]

Floyd is the biggest cherry picker in the history of the sport.

This coward takes 'vacations' for years at a time, waiting for the right opponent to come along, either some small dude, or some old dude, or someone with no boxing skills.

The guy is pathetic, and everyone knows its, but his legions of minimum wage, high school drop outs are just too dumb and ignorant to know better. Floyd Mayweather the champion of idiots, highschool dropouts and crackheads. Be pround.

[The Noose]

At WW, there are no great talents pushing their way to seriously challenge Floyd or Pac.
U either have veteran has-beens, or guys from LWW.
Ortiz is a decent opponent, yet after the Berto match when i suggested he'd be a great opponent for Pac, i was shot down because Ortiz was seen as yet unproved at WW.

Yet now Ortiz has been hyped like all opponents of Pac and floyd are. They just need to sell the fight.
There are no challenges at WW for Pac or Floyd.


If Ortiz deos well its only because Floyd is in decline.

[lest26]

floyd fights the WBC champ and ******s say its a cherry pick, sure floyd will probably win, but then he will beat anyone in the division, even pac, and that fight is next.

[William Blake]

Ortiz is cherrypicked----100% true.

Don't give Floyd "another ****** payday"---don't inflate his ego----stream the fight but don't buy his ppv

Pacquiao is on steroids.

[MindBat]

Come on, son. The same ol' folks who picked Mosley to beat Floyd and now say Shane was old are the very same ones saying Ortiz was hand picked.

Ya'll musta forgot: Ortiz called Floyd out, not the other way around. Same way Hatton called Floyd out. Same way Marquez called Floyd out. And yeah, same way Shane called Floyd out.

If he hadn't fought them,

You'd be the very same ones saying he ducked them all "like a coward."
