    Pac's been cherry-picking shot fighters for years! Hatton is past it as well. Fighting Floyd took a lot out of Hatton.

    Mayweather easily.

    Most people don't realise the way PBF cherrypicks. He cherrypicks the venues, refs, judges, weightclass, etc.

    Like for instance, he had to make Hatton fight at 147, but not 140. Hatton looks so fat and slow and ineffective in 147, Hatton had trouble with other guys at 147, and looks much tougher at 140, but PBF made it manditory only fighting him at 147.

    He always makes the other fighter come into his backyard, but never once has he ever gone into real danger in another's backyard. It's sad, isn't it. Never willing to do what the REAL greats risked and did.

    Pac? Fighting JMM twice, moving WAY UP to get DLH and KO him out? Pac is a warrior, and he doesn't patty around and strive for that decision like PBF does in big fights. No, Pac goes for clean KOs, and against bigger guys too! Pac knows how to go for the juggler!

    hmm says... get your facts straight.

    Pac was moving up in weight and saw little resistance in Diaz to retain the title so Team Pac want after it...
    If you are considering the Mexican legends he fought as cherry-picked...:patsch ....Each fighter wanted a rematch..
    I'm not hating on you or anything man. Just find it ironic how you call some people *******s when some of the stuff you say about Pac are far from facts.

    I also think almost every fighter is virtually guilty of cherry-picking anyways.

    hmm says I don't like these statements cause losses to one person cannot take a lot so easily...... If you're gonna go that way.. (For diehard PBF fans) Didn't Floyd say Pac won against DLH cause he took everything away from him?..... If so, didn't Sugar Shane, Bernard Hopkins, and Trinidad take everything away from DLH for PBF, but yet PBF barely won on a split decision?

    To me one loss won't take a lot from certain people.. You just gotta remember that some losses make some fighters much better.

    (note... not hating on anyone or PBF.. just trying to prove a point)

    Let's see how all these guys you are putting down finish their career. The way the foreignors have been beating most of our fighters, I think the putting them down is getting old and stale.

    I wish Bhop would go after Kessler, he has a big belt, yet Bhop never mentions his name. Bhop is smart guy, and will only have interest in guys he sees q weakness and an opening against.

    i considered only the ATG...a poll has been made before few months ago and PBF receives thrice as much votes as JC
