is pac cherrypicking marg?

No but Arum is though!

 

By that logic you can say why doesnt fraud accept 50% instead of going on vacation and make zero money?

 

EXACTLY what I was going to post.

 

Floyd claims he never even negotiated and he's enjoying his vacation. There weren't any demands to cave into.

Anyway, I'm pissed about the fight, but I don't think it's cherry picking. Take Mayweather out of the equation, and Margarito is probably the biggest money fight available, and it's not a gimme either. I mean, who else was available?

Chavez - THAT would have been cherry picking

Bradley or Alexander - Not nearly as much $$$

Martinez - Not as much $$$, not as big of a name, plus one can't expect him to jump all the way to 160 (though it would have been nice)

Williams - Not as much $$$; tougher fight than Margarito, but doesn't make sense

Berto - Not as much $$$, no more of a challenge than Margarito

Marquez - Probably not as much money, and after seeing how Marquez looked his last few fights, does anyone really think Pac wouldn't rip him to shreds at this point?

Cotto - We already watched Pacquiao convincingly beat Cotto

I would have LOVED to see him face Bradley or Martinez, but there are a lot of reasons why it makes more sense to fight Margarito. Can't really say he ducked either one, or that he's fighting someone who doesn't make sense, considering the circumstances.

 

Arum also says Margocheato will be pac's toughest fight :roll:

 

No

 

a little

 

Doesn't emmanuel get 80% or 70% vs marg?

 

how would he take a 45% cut against floyd when floyd won't fight and is on vacation? let us remember that it was floyd who he wants and this fight is happening because floyd won't accept pac's challenge.

 

Challenge pays no bill

 

of course, so does being on a holiday.

 

No Arum has matched him againsed Margo. Pac just turns up to fight them.

 

It is a safe fight that will pay him a lot of money.
