Is there any options that Mayweather has at 147 that are not cherry picks?

[MGMGRAND]

Opponents being labeled as a cherry pick so far

1. Khan
2. Danny Garcia
3. Keith Thurman
4. Devon

Outside of Manny and Bradley, which im also sure would be labeled cherry picks, any there any opponent he can pick out of this list and not get criticized for ?

Funny part is, everyone is considered a cherry pick once May decides to face them

I think its pretty obvious that anybody Mayweather picks as an opponent will be labeled a cherry pick by people that don't like him. Literally anyone that he could realistically fight has ’something' wrong with them that people would use to diminish his victory.

The worst part is that any fighter that May faces is a big threat to ne fighter they face not named Mayweather

The mans standards are godlike

The only cherry pick on that list is Khan. Unification fights and defenses against ranked contenders aren't cherry picks. Its called professional sports.

So are you saying that people wouldn't call Garcia or Thurman or Devon a cherry pick for Mayweather?

Khan is a cherry and Thurman is still green so he's a cherry pick. Danny should fight @147 first. Anyone else you mentioned is good and not a cherry pick. I say Bradley then man up and get in the ring with the little giant.

Manny and Bradley are the only guys left @147 that would make sense. At 154 Sergio and GGG. Toughtest fight would be GGG so that fight aint happening.

Keith Thurman is unexperienced, needs to fight some tough opposition first and make a bigger name. I would NOT call Thurman a cherry pick.

Garcia is a weightclass below, so it doesnt make sense either, Garcia needs to get into the mix at 147 first. Garcia is not a cherrypick either.

Devon got manhandled by Tim Bradley, Devon doesnt draw alot of fans and is not that charismatic or has an exciting style, they would lose more money with Devon than with the Guerrero fight. No cherrypick here.

Khan - well he has alot of fans (dont really understand why so) and has a somewhat exciting style but he got knocked out by a journeyman, then got knocked out by Danny Garcia and went life and death with an average fighter (Julio Diaz), also Khan has no experience at 147 so what you make out of that opponent against the #1 p4p is your choice, i think Khan is not the best choice. But yeah Khan would be a cherrypick.

Best choices would be

Sergio @154
Manny
Bradley
GGG @154 (obviously wont happen but as a fan this would be THE fight)

No, it's called marketing a crap fight and sadly, that's how many of the elite select their opponents now. In no way is a fight against Keith Thurman "professional." Thats a BS fight and everyone knows it.

Bradley and Pacquaio are the answers to the original post.

Whats wrong with a champ at 140 jumping to 147 to fight the champ, isn't that hows its suppose to be done?? It has never been a requirement before that a champ must take a tune up while stepping up in weight, May and Garcia both are champs.
