Good names he beat.
How many times did he fight in other countries? If I remember correctly even if he fought the same guy more than once they had to travel to Germany every time. And German judges suk! I mean Andrade should of had a UD...
Darius a star in Germany making more $$$ than Roy was approaching Rocky's record when he traveled to Floriduh to drum up a Roy fight during HBO broadcast.
Nobody wanted to know. Darius lost his record fight and Roy lost his next fight vs Tarver that was much worse.

If cherry picking is about fighting at home, then all american stars are cherrypickers.
Regarding biased judges, which has little to do with the topic, then the american stars has nothing on DM.
To sum it up, you need to be a little more specific regarding DM, or he has to be scratched from the cherrypicker list.

Jones? He beat Toney, Tarver, Hopkins, Virgil Hill, Reggie Johnson, stepped up to HW and snatched a title from Ruiz. You asked for decent names, and those are decent names. Some writers and fans will make arguments for Toney and Hopkins as ATGs. Not the greatest resume but he was also avoided by the best Euro fighters of the 90s/2000s who all insisted he had to come to them while he was champion. Hopkins priced himself out of an earlier rematch and hid out at 160 to pad his record and avoid 168.

Lara wasn't a cherry pick so why are you even bringing him up?
And angulo dropping lara in a fight he loss means what? He damn near lost an eye. Wilder dropped fury 4 times. I don't hear you telling us how good wilder was in defeat. Stop being a hypocrite.
I gave facts about canelo resume. but ima hater man gtfoh.
Canelo got more catchweight fights than Floyd and pac. That's a fact goofy
Canelo won his first 154 title with a 150 catchweight. That's a fact goofy
Canelo won his first 160 title with a 155 catchweight. That's a fact goofy
canelo fought chavez jr at a catchweight of 164. That's a fact goofy.
Canelo defended the 160 title against khan at a 155 catchweight. Thats a fact goofy.
These things happened in real life Mr fanboy
The topic is top cherry picker of all time, a nebulous open ended question on par with who here can nail a jello to a tree for free?
All weight classes outside of Heavyweight were born out of catchweight fights, and yup, even in a heavyweight fight where fighters don't have to make weight, a catchweight clause could be written into the fight as the Quasi ex of Paul/Rahman showed in that fight where Paul a natural 190 lber can't make 200+ without wearing weights, and Rahman contractually bound to 215 after being 224 and 215 in his last two fights.
I told you the circumstances of Canelo catchweights that were not cherry picks but rather circumstantial to big $$$ or other outside conditions as with Yildrim.
I also enumerated the boundless, sociopathic TBA conditions l'l floydy forced opponents into along with his fights being held in his personal venue using his personal judges, refs, commish and drug testers and drug testing rules.
For some strange reason this limp wimp of fighter along wif his crack daddy family became the American Face of boxing after Tyson retired.
