    Anyone mentioned Bowe - Golota 1 yet?

    Riddick admitted on Legendary Nights that he viewed it "as nothing but a payday" and took him lightly...

    Sure, he won by DQ, but he took a hell of a beating in the process, so I'd consider that a cherry pick, and one that went wrong for sure.

    So that means those fighters are cheery-pick, right?

    cherrypicking is when you choose the easier or the easiest of the options available.

    pac-jmm 3, who else was pac supposed to fight who was tougher than jmm and is available at that time to qualify jmm as the the cherry???

    Meh, did anyone really think that highly of Ronald before that? I supposed it did butt**** Bob Arum's eventually Round Robin of Hearns-Chavez-Duddy.

    How is a fellow world champion a cherry pick?
