    Where did this BS come from?
    Let's put an end to this nonsense.

    The only fighters in past 5 years that Pacquiao is fighting someone coming off a loss are Rios and Clottey. That's it.

    Marquez 3 (JMM coming off TKO WIN over Ramos)
    Marquez 4 (JMM coming off a UD WIN over Fedchenko)
    Bradley (Undefeated, young, and slick)
    Margarito (Marg coming off a UD WIN over Roberto Garcia)
    Cotto (Cotto coming off SD WIN over Clottey)
    Hatton (Hatton coming off TKO WIN over Malignaggi)

    I can go on and on down the list and majority are all coming off WINS.

    Marquez IV coming off a loss within two fights FLOYD
    Margarito raped by Mosley within two fights
    Mosley pwned by FLOYD within two fights
    Cotto raped by Margarito within two fights
    Hatton pwned by FLOYD within two fights
    DLH pwned by FLOYD within two fights
    Morales I loss to Barrera
    Morales II loss to Raheem
    Rios coming off a loss
    Clottey coming off a loss
    ...

    need i go on? ... clearly Pac is fighting names on their decline. If boxing had a cherry pick index, Pac would be #1 no doubt.

    Those victories you point to are "tune up" victories.

    Oh now, we have to stretch the truth to make it fit the statement? I can make the same statement about Mayweather

    Mosley pwned by COTTO within three fights
    Marquez pwned by PACQUIAO within three fights
    Judah pwned by BALDOMIRE within one fight
    Mitchell PWNED by KOSTA within two fights

    and I can go on and on. I can try to stretch the truth (which is essentially a lie) to make it fit any fighter too.

    My post was also all facts. I guess you can't believe what you're reading when the truth is in front of you.

    Ok, Rios is coming off a loss. Shane hadn't won in his prior two fights, Clottey was coming off a loss, Barrera was coming off a loss, Morales and Larios were coming off a loss as well. 3K Battery was coming off a draw. That's 5 different fighters coming off a loss, 6 fights against a guy coming off a loss, and 8 fights against a guy who hadn't won in his last fight.

    Considering how many people joke that beating Berto gets you a shot at Floyd(it's happened twice), it's really no wonder that Pacquiao gets some flak for fighting guys coming off a loss. I don't think it's a big deal as Pacquiao has fought plenty of good fighters. However, there is merit to the criticism.

    Maybe you should go reread the title of YOUR thread. It doesn't say "MAYWEATHER always fighting people coming off a loss".

    Fact is, your hero is always fighting dudes coming off of loses. Hence the Brandon Rios fight when the logical opponent would have been Mike Alvarado...

    Invalid argument. TOTALLY DIFFERENT.

    Mosley was coming off the biggest win of his career. Considering his age, and the aura that surrounded Margarito at the time
    Marquez was not Owned my Pac. From what I recall theres only one clear win in ther quadrilogy and it doesnt belong to Pacquiao
    Judah was P4P, and Floyd signed for that fight in advance, and then went on to beat Baldomir ANYWAY.

    PLUS. those arent even Floyds biggest wins. All the ones mentioned for Pacquiao are indeed his biggest wins.

    No argument my friend .

    Pacquiao just got his Chin Shattered in brutal fashion. And as others have shown you he does indeed like to not only fight fighters that have been losing but also weight drains them in disgraceful catch weight fights. :lol::rofl
