Mayweather the biggest cherry picker in boxing

[FeFist]

Luxury of climbing to the top.

[Chrismart]

Chrismart is a decent poster and he voted yes. That's the only yes vote that matters. The rest are the usual suspects and the other names they created so those votes don't really matter because it's 1 guy voting 2 times.

To be honest mate, i was just being a bit of a wind up merchant in the vote.

I hold Mayweather in high regards. I didn't always, but as his career went along, i learnt to separate his 'Money May' persona which annoyed me, from his in-ring ability, and could appreciate his skills. He deserves the accolades he gets.

I always see polls as a chance to be a bit mischievous, see if it get's a raise. I can be a pain in the arse at times

You really take it personally.

Repeat after me.....

Floyds achievements are Floyds achievements and not my own.

Say this at least 20 times a day everyday for a year and you should be cured.

I really don't take it personally at all...i just think that to try to put down a man with Mayweathers achievements is foolish when other people try to hype up guys like golovkin, who is likely the MOST overrated current fighter on the p4p list.

By the logic here, let's see...who else would be a cherry picker?

Marquez?
Cotto I guess?
How about SRL? Didn't he wait a lonnnng time to fight hagler?
Pacquaio? After all, his run from 135 was tainted severely by refusal of testing, catchweight titles, guys Floyd had already beaten, sudden loss of power after ariza left, roach's admittance of not knowing what Alex was going him.
You can literally make a case for every single fighter in existence being overrated or a "cherry picker"

Fun fact. You can nit pick any fighter's resume. "This guy was old, this guy coming off loss, this guy didn't have power"

true but with floyd claiming to be the best ever, and his overzealous fan club giving him the nod against everybody from srl to robinson to ali, it should be no problem to scrutinize

I figured. I surely will not judge you on that vote alone. Besides, I enjoy being a daft prick myself from time to time

Why do posters put so much stock in Floyd calling himself TBE? If this was the 1980's you'd be mad at Donald curry since there are no cobras in Michigan.

50% got floyd for cherrypicking...thats a significant amount...

It's not even the 50% that matters on anonymous forums. There are legit sportswriters who have accused him of cherry-picking for years, but of course their opinion doesn't matter. They are just haters with an agenda.
