Point was he could have unified with Charlo Jermell, or Andrade.
He picked the greener guy, Jarett.
Get in now doe?

Yep, those fights with Charlo or Andrade could have been 2-3 times bigger than the newest champ Hurd. They could have attracted more and bigger flies.

Hurd is better than Jermell and Andrade doesn't fight anyone.

Charlo would go after Rosario, mark my word.
Just like his brother ignoring Derevy who's been in his own backyard for years.
It's a pattern in the PBC household.
Lara, Charlo 1 and 2 ignoring each other for years.
Then here comes the newbie getting attention.

Yep, they haven't changed the culture after all these years. Ignore each other until some newbie comes along. Williams was supposed to win that fight. Lara vs Williams would have been a better attraction for fans.

Oscar vs Pacquaio is as good as an example you'll get in recent memory.

How was that a cherrypick??? Pacquiao was already a GREAT fighter when he fought Oscar so how is that a cherrypick??
Oscar has ALWAYS fought the best so fighting at welterweight was the ONLY way this fight would of happened. So how is it a cherrypick???
