    Every fighter(literally in history) cherry picks. It's inhuman for a fighter to go through a serious/tough training camp for every single fight. In the end these athletes are human beings, which is something the simple minded will never comprehend. Going through serious training camps over and over will reduce activity, which is easily observable for those in doubt.

    I don't know about Clottey, but fighting someone when they're at a low point can be considered a cherry pick. Like fighting Cotto on a KO loss at a catchweight. Like what Floyd did to Canelo, the catchweigh is to reduce their muscle mass, making their punches weaker.

    roach does not select or negotiate who pac should fight.

    pac does not say "it depends on my trainer."

    Roach picked Oscar based on his last 2 performances, ie SD loss to Floyd and UD over Forbes. So The Oscar that took floyd to an SD, Roach thought a Pac who had just 1 fight at LW would be good enough to beat :deal

    There's nothing new about this. However, none of these words come from Pac, Floyd openly talks about cherry picking and being a rich coward straight from the horses mouth, and if you ask his trainers as what Roach is, they fear for his life.

    Doesn't matter who's doing the cherry picking, fact is, both have fought cherry picked fights. Just because his trainer does the talking for him doesn't add any more value to the victory :patsch

    Don't act like Pacquiao doesn't cherry pick :rofl

    Look at you grasping for straws. Oh a friend who's a friend of Pac's maid said Pac cherrypicks. Meanwhile "I'm a rich coward" - Straight from the horses mouth.

    Tell me about it bro.. He's been cherry picking, using PEDs, and passing people off since his first fight.. Why doesn't anyone see this? Tricking the world for almost 20 years.. He's nothing but an actor.. And a bad one at that...
