    Freddie and Pac have created the bluebrint for little guys cherry picking their way to 10-20 million dollar paydays. We should expect nothing less for the likes of Rios, Guerrero, Donaire, Gamboa, Juanma, Vasquez Jr, Rigondeaux, Timothy Bradley. If they don't do the same thing and go up multiple weights and fighting contenders much bigger than them they should be seen as chicken**** bums

    So Pacquaio has fought every big name in the welterweight division and their cherrypickers?
    Think about it they've fought everyone apart from Berto who was beaten soundly recently anyway.

    I have to admit, all these advantages have left a bit of a blemish on Pac's 8 title record. Thing is, I don't think he needed any of those catchweights appart from maybe de De La Hoya fight, where without the catch weight (not really a catch weight, but a drop down), the fight wouldn't have been possible.

    This highlights what I don't like about Freddie Roach but more specifically, Bob Arum top fighters. They are over protected to the extent that, it becomes annoying. Plus, fights have to be "in the house" so Arum can have his lyon share.

    Rather than Pacquiao fighting Mosley, I'd much rather have him fight a Berto (before he got beat) or now, an Ortiz. Fighters on winning streaks. They aren't necessarily better than the fighters he has faced (I'd say Cotto is better than any of the before mentioned), but they are hungry lyons and would look better in Pac's resume.

    Arum's fighters protected? lol, his top fighters have fought everybody and each other (look at the records and opposition of Margarito, Cotto, Clottey, Pac, Pavlik, Morales, Mayweather, De La Hoya when they were with him). The Top Rank-GBP war has made some fights not possible now, but anyone who claims Arum protected his top fighters are clearly making it up

    Why would you start such a stupid thread? There should be a section in the forum labelled 'for idiots' you could go there and post whatever you like

    You are basically saying that team Pac is cherry picking Floyd. By the logic that you have, you are a certified *****.
