And as far as Heavyweight title this is prime example of cherry picking because Lennox was the man not the smaller Ruiz. Like I said 75% cherry picking. Or like I said careful matchmaking or protecting the fighter? But he was an unbelievable talent that could have been an Ali like icon had he fought to his full potential and fought all competition that was around.
Please explain to me how RJJ is more of a cherry picker than:

Joe Calzaghe
Sven Ottke
Anthony Mundine
Dariusz Michalczewski
Zsolt Erdei

All guys of a similiar weight. All guys u didnt mention so u obviously think Roy is a bigger cherry picker than them.

RJJ cherry picked cos he didnt fight Lewis? A guy who started at 160, was fighting at 175 cherry picked cos he didnt fight an alltime great HW who weighed 245? U idiot.
Well for starters I did not mention any of those name except DM but yes he should have fought Joe Calzaghe over Telesco Sven Ottke over Eric Lucas. Oh and yes its called cherry picking when you take on a smaller heavyweight and call yourself the champ when you know your not. Next nobody heard of Glen Johnson until he fought Jones. Why did Jones fight him hmmm because of the losses he had on his record and he had a belt. Guess what he cherry picked the wrong guy because Glen was a hungry pitbull. He avoided a rematch with Toney priced himself out of the Bhop fight and the Tyson fight. And no those guys are cherry pickers but Roy is the more prolific on that list. Also my list could have been more but I knew I would be responding to 1 name on the list RJJ. Thank you Eagle I love you for your passion. Idiot? I think not just debating. So lets put another shrimp on the barbie and go for round 4.
