    Id say DLH trying to cherry Pick Manny Pac, ....DLH tried to cherry little Manny for big PPV dollars, shiit blew up in his face as he got beat down and retired.

    Kahn tried cherry picking Danny Garcia, Kahn figured hey I will take this scrub who blew out Morales and wear him out while looking good. then to magnify his stupidity and arrogance kahn goes in looking for the ko gets KTFO and is refused a rematch .

    CAN YOU GUYS RHINK OF OTHERS?

    Ortiz/Collazo was a recent one gone wrong.

    this might happen again to Kahn, this coward refuses to fight Brook For 8 million in UK dollars. I wouldn't be surprised if Collazo smokes that glass chin

    Broner & his crew cherry picked Maidana...Believed his own hype and got a rude awakening. Thought he'd be able to box circles around Maidana...

    Couldn't emulate what Alexander, Khan or even Kotelnik could do.

    Broner/Maidana was assumed to be a cherry pick by some. nearly everyone had the flat footed slow argentine losing to the much hyped broner.

    lennox Lewis almost had this happen when Vitali was a sub and Lennox figured this big stiff robot will be put away quick, he almost got KTFO and retired.

    Cherry picks gone wrong highlights why the term cherry picking is grossly overused.

    I am aware that Scott boxing skills are greatly underrated, but if Wilder can't use his KO power to neutralize Scott Ring IQ, then Wilder has no chance vs Wlad :patsch

    If Scott wins, it's a guaranteed payday next, so Scott is fighting the fight of his life :bbb

    I don't think Garcia was a cherry pick, Peterson might have been though.
    I think Maidana was a cherry pick gone wrong for Broner.

    Khan Garcia wasn't a cherry pick...PEDerson failed his drug test remember leaving Khan without an opponent? Peterson Bradley Alexander were the top fighters in the division at that point.

    Salido was a cherry pick for someone with one professional fight? :lol:, and sure it went wrong alright when Salido decided to not make weight and get all the advantages any Mexican fighter would need in Texas. Dumbass.
