Do you still consider Floyd Mayweather a "cherry picker"?

    "code words":rofl


    For whatever reason, you fail to realize or accept that this is not a ******* thing. There are plenty of average boxing fans who feel the same way!

    His team stated Mosley was backup plan if the Pacquiao fight fell apart back in November.

    JMM was clearly a tune up fight whatever Mayweather said, he was hardly going to say that was he?

    I don't think he wanted to fight Mosley, not because he's scared of losing to him or anything but when Mayweather wanted Mosley when he was coming up through the weights Shane wouldn't give him the fight, now Mayweather is a huge draw and Mosley can earn some serious money he wants to fight him, Mayweather knows this so told him no. That's my opinion on it.

    Btw If he had agreed to fight Mosley after the JMM people would be saying he was ducking Pacquiao.

    I don't care what he says. I just want to see official releases. Everything I hold Team Pac to the fire for THEY SAID in an OFFICIAL CAPACITY.

    Yes it was because (in no particular order):

    -- He was a #2 P4P
    -- He called him out
    -- FMJ needed a tune up
    -- It was relatively safe
    -- It made the FMJ/MP fight more interesting

    Sure Mosely called him out. So what? You and every boxing fan knows that is NOT the fight the fans wanted to see. They wanted to see FMJ/MP so FMJ worked on the fight the fans wanted. SSM kept it moving and got into another situation.

    FMJ isn't mentioning any potential fight now. Is he ducking someone? He focuses on the guy in front of him!

    Manny ducked. The VIDEO evidence of Team Pac lying is right here!

    True. I already said, the whole cherrypicker thing is blown out of proportion, but I do think he was avoiding Mosley, whatever his reasons were.

    You are probably right with that one, but the true fans would see it for real, in that Mosley is a tough challenge. He could always say Pac is next. lol.
     
  7. At this time he's still a cherry picker. Fighting Mosley is a great start in changing that, but this far he's pretended to fight the top welters while all the top welters have been fighting eachother.

    If after Mosley he fights Pacquiao and P. Williams, he will start getting that ATG respect from me. As of now he's a super super talented and confident guy who I wanna see lose or step up and go through some adversity.

    Oscar De La Hoya was always a primadonna son of a *****, but you gotta give that fool his props for fighting Vargas, Trinidad, Hopkins, Mayweather, and Pacquiao late in his career. Mayweather has had opportunities to take really hard fights where he can lose and he's straight up passed.

    This is the essence of all of you guys not liking him. Adversity is what makes us like fighters that much more. Same way people liked Judah more post Cotto.

    Unfortunately for you haters, FMJ just doesn't let it happen.
