Been posting in Larry's thread about shane not being the lineal champ at 147, and he is right about that.
But what if we were to start a brand new lineal title starting right now based on rankings and competition won and lost against in each division. who would you champs be at
Heavyweight
cruiser
Lightheavy
Supermiddle
Middle
Jr middle
welter
jr welter
Lightweight
jr lightweight
featherweight
Jr feather
Bantamweight
You guys have the right idea. Thank you.
Heavyweight: Wladimir Klitschko
Cruiserweight: Tomasz Adamek (assuming he hasn't left full time)
Light Heavyweight: Chad Dawson
Super Middleweight: N/A
Middleweight: Kelly Pavlik
Jr. Middleweight: N/A
Welterweight: Shane Mosley
Jr. Welterweight: Manny Pacquiao (Bradley could be inserted here)
Lightweight: Juan Manuel Marquez
Super Featherweight: Humberto Soto
Featherweight: Chris John
Super Bantamweight: Celestino Caballero
Bantamweight: Hozumi Hasegawa
And....
Super Flyweight: Vic Darchinyan
Flyweight: Daisuke Naito
Jr. Flyweight: Ivan Calderon
Strawweight: N/A
Last thing we need's another belt.
This has nothing to do with another belt. Only who you think is the best representative from each division if a new lineage were to start today.
w.klitschko
adamek (if is still cruiser,if not cunningham)
dawson
kessler
pavlik

pac-man
bradley
marquez

They should create a lineal title for 145.
Come on KJ, you know that belongs to Manny. Floyd had his chance at catchweight supremacy but couldn't make weight.:twak:
If you were gonna just start from scratch it's simple: have the top 2 contenders fight each other.
I just want you to base it on who you think is the most deserving based on their resume at their particular weight, and where they rank at the moment.
