    Its not only pacquiao's fault, it's mayweather's fault too.

    Right. I guess that is why Manny keeps fighting the same flat footed recklessly aggressive Mexican guy with no head movement. :roll:

    Oscar De La Hoya never cherry picked, he fought every one. Mayweather was a warrior when he was young, but since he fought DLH he has ducked plenty of fighters. That is why he will not fight Canelo and will look to fight some one like Khan.

    Pac said 50/5o and Floyd said no knowing that Pac wouldn't go less so knowing he wouldn't have to fight
    Floyd is scared to test himself and be in an actual fight

    thats bs..pac was lesser than floyd in terms of value, pac beat the guy who ktfo pac and mayweather earns more than pac, even draws more than pac. Everyone not new to boxing knows that, and the testing was the real issue in the first place.

    Floyd is already tested and proven, his resume speaks for himself

    pac isn't a man of his word, he even said he'd take a blood test in between rounds and then says he is afraid of needles

    most fighters take the highest paid fight regardless of the challenge.

    Floyd takes the highest paid/easy fight. And that's the differance.

    Canelo was the highest paid fight. But the highest paid easy fight was Ghost.

    There was a time when Margo was the highest paid fight. But the highest paid easy fight was Baldomir.

    So that's the differance. but it does prove to be a better way of doig it financially because floyds raking it in now.

    Floyd is the only fighter that catches this kind of **** for fighting a legitimage, high quality opponent (during the hottest streak of RG's career, at that) with Floyd coming off of a long layoff.

    floyd makes his fights look easy, if he were fighting different fighters to the ones he fought his haters would cry duck anyways. Every fight he shows to people he is levels above his opponents. He fought cotto at his best weight, when cotto was the best at 154(even better than canelo was at that time)

    Floyd hasn't had a "soft touch" since Sharmba Mitchell...and that was a move up in weight so you would have to go back to Gatti or Bruseles

    This is absolutely not true. My boy Vargas never hand picked anyone.
