I dont think Pac would've beat him. Pac cherry picked his fights just as much as people claim Floyd cherry picks his.

 

He cherry picked , yes. Not as much as Floyd. 

 

In 08, he had a very good chance of beating him. Though I'll admit he had a very good chance of losing too.

Who has Floyd cherry picked though? Give me some examples

Canelo was cherry picked, Guerrero, Ortiz, Balsimir to name a few. It's known he doesn't fight anyone in their prime or take risks with picking opponents. 

You can't be serious..

 

Andre Berto was undefeated and was looked at as being the next big thing in boxing and Floyd was going to fight him buy HE LOST to Ortiz in a crazy ass fight. Berto was #3 P4P in the welterweight division behind Pacquaio and Mayweather at the time before he got beat by Ortiz.

 

Robert Guerrero hadn't lost a fight in the last 7 years before he fought Mayweather. Who else was May supposed to fight at the time?

 

Mayweather was in line to face Zab Judah because he was one of the top guys at the time and they had already planned to fight before Zab fought Baldomir. Baldomir beat Judah in a shocking upset and Floyd decided to carry on with fighting Judah(he would never do this again) and then people were starting to think that Floyd was scared and trying to duck Baldomir. So he fought Baldomir right after the Judah fight. 

 

If anything, that was like the only time where you can say Floyd cherry picked but you could understand when you know the business part of boxing

 

And who was a better fight for Floyd at the time he fought Canelo? People were trying to say that Floyd was scared to fight Canelo! Canelo was hungry, young, strong, and undefeated when he fought Floyd

 

I can't believe you just tried to say that Floyd cherry picked them.
