Official Mayweather vs Maidana Master Discussion & Postfight Analysis Thread

[IronDanHamza]

if there's better opposition out there, you can consider it a cherrypick

im not picking maidana to win btw

Really? Pretty harsh isn't it?

Unless you fight the absolute best option a fights a cherry pick?

New one.

not my opinion, i consider the maidana fight alright-ish

and not the "very" best but if there is another fight you should be taking, and instead you're fighting a much lesser opponent, cherrypick no?

like garcia-herrera, why was he fighting herrera and not having a matthysse rematch, mayfield, and i know the odds are lower but talks for a provo fight ala donaire-mares

that was a cherrypick, i kept saying it was a cherrypick, i've had other fights where im thinking "this guy thinks he can duck -whoever- and cherrypick -place name-, well he's gonna be in for a suprise"

too bad i can't remember what fight it was

Well Herrera was unranked, 2-2 in his last 4 fights, that was an obvious cherry pick.

Don't see how that's the same as this fight here.

well again, it's not my opinion that maidana is a cherrypick for floyd

im just explaining how a fight can be a cherrypick, yet you can favor a guy for an upset

I don't see how you can cherry pick a guy and favour the same guy for an upset.

How can a risky fight be a cherry pick?

Doesn't make sense.

did i not explain with the herrera-garcia example?

I think as a fan of Chino you're selling him very short.

You said in another thread when the fight was first signed that Mayweather is no better than Broner. And that fight wasn't a mismatch. Or was that a joke when you said that?

Floyd's a better fighter and more skilled, but he's 37 years old. The more skilled fighter doesn't always win.

I'm actually not... In my head, I see Floyd on the canvas several times, bleeding and whatnot. Horrible things. But I don't share that because those are the personal thoughts/desires of a hardcore fan like myself.

I do believe Maidana could possibly outwork Floyd and if he puts him down twice or so, this could very well be a repeat of the Broner fight.

That is my fanaticism talking. That's how I hype myself up lol. Talking a little bit of trash here and there, making some bold statements AKA ridiculous statements to the rest of you.

That is correct... That is why we might very well see a surprise on May 3rd. I BELIEEEVE!!!!! I really do, I believe!! CHINNOOOOO!!!!!!!! "And down goes Mayweather oh my god... his fragile little body is still hanging from the ropes... And they are still counting, Paulie!! The ref is still counting....... IT'S OVERRR!! The argentinian ASSASSIN does it again and the crowd goes crazy!! AAA"

[IronDanHamza]

did i not explain with the herrera-garcia example?

No I don't think you did.

No one considered that a risky fights and the ones who did didn't consider it a cherry pick.

How can a fight be risky and a cherry pick? How is it possible to be both?

It's extremely confusing.

You're saying you genuinely believe this is a tough fight for Floyd, one he can lose.

But then you're saying it's a cherry pick though

Just go with one or the other. Either it's a tough fight or it's not.

No I don't think you did.

No one considered that a risky fights and the ones who did didn't consider it a cherry pick.

a cherrypick is decided by the fighter

if pacquiao leaves tr and joins gbp, asks mayweather to a fight and mayweather fights shawn porter, porter fight is a cherrypick, but personally(my opinion) i'd consider it a risky fight that porter could squeeze out

but it would definitely still be a cherrypick, because why would he be fighting porter, when pacquiao is available?(considering he wins against bradley and the like)

kay? understand? cool? im out, see you in another thread

p.s remembered the cherrypick that i was considering to be risky vs floyd, it was the guerrero fight, embarrassing i kno
