      he could've fought a younger cotto but retired, and Paul Williams was around...

      so was Sergio Martinez

      instead he fought Andre berto, victor Ortiz and Robert Guerrero

      but also he had to make money and honestly there weren't too many established or great WWs

      its not his fault that there really wasnt a super duper threat with star power besides Pacquiao.

      I kind view him like rocky Marciano, beat the guys that were available that made him the most money.

          A few $hundred K of good grub in a luxury setting = FOD.

          Simples...

          The decade Manny and Floyd were head to head Manny didnt even get nominated .

            No reason to

            He was conquered by BOTH his rivals in that decade then went on a 4-fight cherry spree: Vargas Horn Lucas Broner

                Sarcastic example of a non cherry picking, risk taking ATG

                Diaz, Shot Hatton, Shot DLH, Shot Mosley, Clottey, Shot Margarito, Shot Rios, Shot Lucas, Shot Broner, HORN, Shot Algieri

                Talk about chasing greatness and risking his life !

                  He was not a cherry picker and you are not confused about it.Tell that BS to those who have never read your posts. you love Mayweather and think he is the greatest. He is your second favorite fighter next to Canelo. You started this thread to praise Mayweather not to ask if he was a cherry picker.
