With blueprints like these is a win over either fighter considered a cherry pick?

      Serious question since every fighter seems to get hyped up to beat Floyd Mayweather and after he wins they get downgraded to excuse after excuse or they were a bum doe. If Floyd fights either one of these fighters (Pacquiao or Khan) is it considered a cherry pick? Does he get credit if he were to beat these fighters?



      It would be considered a cherry pick because, after Mayweather wins, the haters would claim that he cherrypicked whichever one he fought to avoid the other. If Mayweather beat both of them, the haters would claim that he cherrypicked to avoid GGG.

        Actually, the haters say that he has lost a step (compared to how he look at the age of 27 and at an age when most fighters are long retired). That is why they say that Khan, Pacquaio or Thurman would beat him.

        The truth is that if Mayweather was 27 and in his prime he would KO Pacquaio and Khan in the same night.

            This is the sad truth that's gonna keep happening til he retires. 37 and still #1P4P PPV King! May 2nd Make it happen with either though so it'll be 1 down out of the decent contract filling money fights and 1 to go. May 2nd's for Mexican doe.

              clearly youre trying to get a reaction out of people.

              floyd beating Amir khanyou may have a point but if amir keeps winning then there is no reason not to fight khan.

              as for pac... pacquiao is a future all time great 8 division champ. how on earth
              can that be considered a cherry pick by anyone including bias fans?


              if pac was a cherrypick floyd would have fought him 5 years ago

                Difference is Pacquiao was a kid still in those fights, though I don't down play the early loses what so ever or his loss to Marquez. Their are too many discrepancies from a young Pacquiao and a knock out loss to Marquez. Marquez no matter how you look at it has always been an individual who has the ability to knock you out; unlike Floyd. Floyd doesn't go for knock outs, he looks to out perform you and if a KO comes it's not by choice. I'm a Mayweather fan but not delusional to the idea because Pacquiao has gotten KO'ED Mayweather will do that exact same thing.

                Wise of Khan, again Mayweather doesn't have the power of Garcia... Although I feel Mayweather is obviously above the skill set of Garcia but Mayweather wouldn't fight in the pocket at Peterson did or would he go for a KO against Khan.

                I do believe Mayweather could out class Khan but no matter how you look at it a Pacquiao fight would be much more of a challenge. Though I still see Floyd winning both match up but on more lopsided than another.

                  Btw Bradley is on a 5 fight slide, he robbed Prov, Marquez, Pacquiao, & Chaves. So how is he P4P #1?
                  Same goes for Floyd, he's lost 3 straight, to Canelo & twice to Maidana. Neither of deserve P4P doe
                  Your a fool if you see Bradley 0-5 and Mayweather 0-3. Get a life outside of boxing. Your hatred is making you look ignorant.

                      There's no blueprint on how to beat Floyd, no matter how you wanna spin it. That boy Pacquiao been knocked out what like 3 times already? And he still has Marquez problems, Mayweather would toy with Pacquiao.
