Cherry picks gone wrong

[soul_survivor]

What I said had absolutely nothing to do with Mayweather. So I have no idea why you brought him up

oops you were talkin about broner v maidana, i thought may v maidana. Brought him up cos I was replying to someone else who had brought that up. My bad, posted on the wrong one.

Delahoya vs Little Pacquaio

The only poll that mattered was the Mayweaher official poll on Mayweaher' own site. He asked teh question, who should I ifght. Khan won at 55% or something. Mayweather then rubbished his own poll and said he would use some other poll on which Maidana had won (EPSN possibly).

Thas a dam ncherry pick, this too after I actively bigged Mayweather up for posting a poll and letting the fans decide lol

I thought that was a blatant cherry pick

Exactly. It went spectacularly wrong and although I feel Mayweather stole enough rounds to win the fight it was Maidana that came out of there the true winner. He really hurt lil boy floy multiple times and exposed just how limited Mayweather is to volume punchers.

yeah like judah!

You lying moron LOL Judah is not a meaningful opponent on Floyd's resume.

Floyd's resume was topped off when he came back from 2009 up until his retirement. Only bad opponents were Berto was was a going away fight, and Pac was coming off a decent-at best win, but this was simply a fight that had to be made.

I dont look at it as his best opponent.

Danny Garcia vs the salsa dancer guy.....cherry pick and easy win but completely made him look like a loser.

Not sure he hurt Floyd multiple times but his awkwardness definitely threw off Floyd's anticipation on defense. Kind of hard to expose a 37 year old undefeated fighter though.

well the last time Floyd was in trouble was against Oscar and Hatton, where some rounds were close and physically taxing but both were world class operators. Maidana was at best fringe world level and he connected with floyd regularly. A so called defensive genius should not be so tested by a b level fighter.

that's how you beat a fighter with that fundamental shoulder roll style like Floyd:

youtube ali vs. archie moore, jones vs. toney, srl vs. Floyd sr. and you will see how they just left the head alone, hit those guys all over their body, opened up the holes in their defense, and went to work...
