PAC & Shane now officially #1 & 3 Ring welters. Should the fight be for lineal title?

[jrosales13]

Question?

Say PAC beats Mosley just like Floyd did last year... What if Floyd campaigns at 154 or 140 upon his return say December. What happens to Floyds lineal title?

Is it a one fight and done deal? Or is he actually campaigning at one of those weight-classes?

If he's actually campaigning at a weight-class that's not 147. Then the lineal title would be vacant.

Ok I get you lineal champ is vacant, who does pac have to fight to be champion lineal? but how is it Floyd got lineal for beating Mosley? After his comeback fight with Marquez?

[nip102]

Yup. I don't even pay attention to either title. wish the sport would go back to two major titles, maybe 3. none of this ring, lineal iba, ibo, nabo non sense. too many champions

Yeah he was and thats the only way you can consider him the Lineal Champ now. If you disregard his "retirement".

This whole thing about Mosley being lineal champion when Floyd beat him is bollox

I'm not disagreeing with you. But lineal titles are so vague and not controlled by anybody, so there really is no set of OFFICIAL rules regarding how someone can lose that belt.
