And, yes if they fight that will fill the vacancy.
And, yes the same hold for a vacant belt and the best 2 should fight for a vacant belt. Even thought I could careless about the crooked sanctioning belts.
Basically PWill because he is a top boxer can decide he wants to fight sergie and to you the winner can be declared lineal champ because you feel they are the 2 best. This is why I give more weight to actually beating the lineal champ because it takes my feelings and opinions out of it.

I have a question about Armstrong though. Why is the sole Pac comparision the weight jumping thing. I dont hear much mention of the fact he defended his WW title 19 times.
Thats something Pacquiao wont come close to. I see people selling Armstrong short by outright comparing him to Manny like that.

And, ESPN rankings sucks. Dan Rafael does not know what he is talking about. Go look at his bantamweight rankings and see where Moreno is al. There is no justifying those rankings. Subjective my ass he doesn't know. He evens have 105 and 108 mix together. Is not true rankings. Every division from 122 and under doesn't have a top 10 only top 5.
In closing when JMM and Pac fought it was clearly the top 2 in the division. There was not debating it. Nobody else had a case. Not even Joan Guzman had a case to be ranked ahead of the 2.

Pac fought 8 times at 130 and beating everyone that was significant at that division. It was unfortunate that he fought a champion only when he can no longer stay at that divison hence after winning, had to move to the next weight class.
