    Benny, you bring up "undisputed" not meaning something in the future. How many people really give any credit to mayweather holding the unidisputed crown at welter? that future is now if you ask me.

      The problem with that logic is that Mayweather isn't the undisputed Welterweight champion. Undisputed, by definition, means one is champion with no rival claiments. In other words one must hold ALL the major belts otherwise your status as champion is being disputed by the existance of a rival belt holder. As of right now, Mayweather holds NONE of the major belts at Welterweight so he isn't a champion at all let alone an undisputed one. Nor did he ever hold all the major belts at ANY weight class he fought at: He never held more than one or two belts at a time from 130 to 147. So at no time in Mayweather's career has he EVER been undisputed anything.
