How many title would Mayweather win if.....

There were only the 8 divisions and only one belt in each division. Henry Armstrong was a 3 weight world champ and Mayweather is a 5 weight world champ. But Armstrong did it in a era where there was only eight divisions only one recognised world champ. So how does Mayweather do. Well he would be too big to make feather and because there is no superfeatherweight division so he would have to start his career at lighweight. No the man at the weight when Floyd was looking for a title was Sugar Shane Mosley. Shane was a beast at lightweight knocking out everyone, could Floyd at that age beat a prime Shane Mosley at his best weight. It is very debatable if Floyd could win this fight. Floyd could have waited it out for Shane to move up and I think he would have won a title at light weight. Then there is not light welter division so no title for Floyd there. And then we are on to welter. Now Floyd beat Baldomir and Judah titles holders at the weight but would they be title holders with only one belt. Corey Spinks and Zab Judah before hand avoided their number one contender Antonio Margarito. Would Floyd take the Margarito challenge if he had too? And would he pass that challenge? Both very debatable. Then were are on to light middle, what doesn't exist, so no title there for Floyd. At middleweight Floyd would have been too small and would get beat by huge middles like Taylor and Pavlik or even by the defensive genius that is Winky, who might also been the man at the weight. So there you have it Mayweather at the very most would be a 2 weight world champ and may have only been a 1 weight world champ. Kind of puts Henry Armstrong's achievements in perspective because under the same conditions he became a 3 weight world champ and tried his hand at a 4th weight as well. What do you think? How many titles does Floyd win under these conditions? u r absolutely right and im a mayweather fan but how many do u think pac would have won and oscar???

Maybe one, he couldn't have been so carefully selective on who he fought if there was one champ per division. Shots against the likes of Gatti and Baldomir wouldn't exist. He would have retired.

Sometimes I laugh at the dumbassness he comes up with.

Yes you can, but I was reading a thread with some people getting very excited over Floyds 6 titles and being a 5 weight world champ. Armstrong 3 weight world titles >>>>>>> Floyd's 5 weight world titles. No where near the excitement about Pacs "8" titles!!! Since Pac has "the most" titles the thread fits him better IMO.

Another Floyd thread???

130 is superfeather, won't be a division Only 135lbs lightweight and 147lbs welterweight thats is two divsions 154lbs doesn't exist only 160lbs Totally misread the premise of the thread my apologies. If that's the case Floyd squeezes down to 126 and wins that title at the same time he beat Genero. He whoops on anyone at 135 and anyone at 147. 3 weight world champion.

lw and ww but possibly fw too.

yep and when he was at 130 he couldve made 126 so i voted 3 divisional titles..thread starter is great at owning himself it seems..lol He would have been able to make 126 and most likely beat the Champion at 126. But since he didn't, we can't say for sure, he would. Unlike 135 and 147 were he actually did do it so there is absolutely no debate.

With the 8 division and only one title, it could be that he would be facing Mosley at 135lbs and Margarito at 147lbs. Tougher fights for Floyd than the fights he had at those weights. Not saying he couldn't win them, but he could very well lose them too. Mayweather beat the fighter who had THE title at both 135 and 147. So no if they were only 8 divisions and 1 title per division he would still be a 2 weight world Champion. Mayweather has Lineal Titles at both of those weights.

u do realize u r making huuuuge assumptions rite? i dont think u get that u cant go back in time and change/predict how things turn out. so basically ur hypothesizing what u would like to be the case instead of what was the case. Yeah they are assumptions, just they way I think they will go. If someone else wants to do the same fine. It will be a different boxing world with 8 divisionsand one title and a better one in my division.

So you bascially get mad anytime anyone tries to give floyd any damn credit????????gotcha Not mad, just helping some people put things in perspective.

do jabs count???? no :)..../...

Yes you can, but I was reading a thread with some people getting very excited over Floyds 6 titles and being a 5 weight world champ. Armstrong 3 weight world titles >>>>>>> Floyd's 5 weight world titles. Armstrong is a top 10 ATG, so I'm not sure what you're getting at by saying Armstrong is better than Floyd.

With the 8 division and only one title, it could be that he would be facing Mosley at 135lbs and Margarito at 147lbs. Tougher fights for Floyd than the fights he had at those weights. Not saying he couldn't win them, but he could very well lose them too. u do realize u r making huuuuge assumptions rite? i dont think u get that u cant go back in time and change/predict how things turn out. so basically ur hypothesizing what u would like to be the case instead of what was the case.

Well, Mayweather has Lineal Titles at 135 and 147 which are 2 of the 8 original weight classes so he would be a 2 weight world Champion. With the 8 division and only one title, it could be that he would be facing Mosley at 135lbs and Margarito at 147lbs. Tougher fights for Floyd than the fights he had at those weights. Not saying he couldn't win them, but he could very well lose them too.

The answer is 126, 135, and 147. Tres.

Well he would be too big to make feather and because there is no superfeatherweight division so he would have to start his career at lighweight. NO, SIR. THAT IS A FALLACY. When The Floyd was fighting at 130/135, he was the same size as the guys fighting at 126. That is a fact.

Only problem Floyd would have is at 154. From 130-147 he'd hold every single one by the time he faced the number 1 at that weight. 130 is superfeather, won't be a division Only 135lbs lightweight and 147lbs welterweight thats is two divsions 154lbs doesn't exist only 160lbs

Yes you can, but I was reading a thread with some people getting very excited over Floyds 6 titles and being a 5 weight world champ. Armstrong 3 weight world titles >>>>>>> Floyd's 5 weight world titles. thats fine...i dont see the problem. did u need to make a separate thread about it? i dont think any legit poster would disagree with that. and i dont thing any legit poster would have to make a thread about it either...
