    You've incorrectly assessed my post. My posts in no way insinuates that Floyd should have faced anyone in place or Oscar or Hatton. I have however questioned his selection of JMM over Pac on many occasions. Reread the posts because your apparently lacking context.

    Well lets see...Floyd made the return before the fight between Pac and Hatton, so that means that the fight was in talks and made even before that. So what if Floyd had said that Im going to wait for the winner of this fight and it happened to be Hattton??? He would have once again been said to be cherry picking. So since he made a fight before he knew who the winner was that makes it cherry picking?? It makes no sense, and it seems that people want to have it both ways which is the part that I dont like. If one feels that Floyd is cherry picking or fighting softer then he could fighters that one thing, but to just make up **** that makes it impossible to do the right thing no matter what is just plain hating.

    Cherrypicking is an old basket ball term instead of running up court and playing defense with the rest of the team you hang back on offense and wait for the pass for easy layups to score points thats cherry picking.

    cherry-picking is hoping that hatton beats pac to arrange a possible rematch with him when you already KO'd him decisively before. easy fight w/ very big money.
