Your argument that PAC was handpicking his opponents is totally wrong... The fact that it's Hoya who was handpicking PAC already made your statement ridiculous...

Also PAC was not Hoya's first choice as his opponent... We all knew Hoya wanted a PBF rematch but PBF retired... Then Hoya offered Hatton the fight but Hatton declined... Hoya then turned to PAC which PAC bravely accepted but he was heavily criticized for going only for the huge money... Eventually PAC proved them all wrong by destroying Hoya...

Regarding the David Diaz fight, I can remember that PAC was all set to fight David Diaz even before the JMM rematch... PAC was just being considerate and gave JMM a chance to convincingly beat him coz he's already having problems making 130 lbs...
