    Rios Abril springs to mind immediately as the more recent one

    Juanma Salido is another one , that was a disaster :lol:

    Pavlik Hopkins (if you want to call that a cherry pick)

    The biggest one in recent memory is DLH-Pac.

    DLH thought he would make easy work of a fighter moving up two weight classes.

    And he ended up taking a career ending beating.

    No thats not the biggest of recent memory. Khan-Prescott was much more devastating and DLH was old and weight drained to ****

    Khan didnt cherrypicking Presscot.

    It was just another step in his development as a fighter that went wrong.

    Now DLH refused to fight Margarito who was coming of a great victory over Cotto claiming he didnt want to fight anymore mexicans and instead chose to fight a guy that was fighting three divisions bellow him and got his ass beat him as for him being drained he only has himself to blame cause he could have fought a guy in his division instead of picking on a litle lightweight..

    That cherrypick backfired in spectacular fashion not only did Pac gave him the beating of a lifetime he also turned Oscar into a crackhead.

    DLH-Pac no doubt.

    The transvestite got the shock of his life on fight night.

    It took him years and months of rehab for him to fully recover from that loss.

    That wasn't a cherry pick, more than it was them bailing water after Berto's incident.

    That was a conspiracy.

    *******s went 720 on that one.

    "Boo Void dragged Marquez up, boo. Marquez too small for 147(which he is)"

    Pacquiao-Marquez announced

    "Well Marquez can show up at any weight he likes. It isn't a problem. "

    Marquez-Pacqiao occurs

    "Uh uh, Marquez stepped on Pac's feet. he should have been DQ'd"
