I love Floyd, but I have to call out a cherry pick when I see one!

    He clearly cherry picked pac. His least dangerous opponent in a while. While yes Manny is still in top form IMO and even better than a few years ago, he is coming off algieri. If he was coming off beating a better opponent like after Bradley 2 it might not be one.

    Floyd beat him so that's good but IMO Floyd had more difficult options out there.

    Maidana III would have been much more competitive. Cotto II. But the casuals were led to believe an overhyped midget with FOTD and 8 division titles would be able to be beat THE BEST of this era. Just shows how worthless his cherypicked FOTD and 8 division titles are :-(

    Fan want has nothing to do with the reality of an actual fight situation.


    People pay good money to get bologna with cheese stuffed in it. Does that make it legit bologna?
