    Tune up and cherry pick are different things in my opinion so I have to be careful.

    Anyway, I may be wrong, feel free to correct me..

    Errr Lopez beating Victor Ortiz, wasn't Ortiz in line for a Canelo fight? Wasn't that suppose to be a "tune up" for Ortiz?

    Thank goodness that fight didn't happen, Mike was shot by that point and it would have been sad to see him take a brutal and prolonged beating in Ukraine by a guy I believe he would have demolished in his prime.
