Its the truth. Unless somebody wants to fight twice a month or have fights only weeks in between without the proper training. No excuses those are facts.
5 Titles in 5 Divisions or 20 Straight Title Defenses?

20 title defenses is nothing if you fight guys who are naturally smaller than you and are nowhere near your skill level. Moving up in weight your fighting guys who are physically stronger and are much more powerful.

I will say it’s even.
On one hand, anytime you move up in weight typically the punching power increases so that alone requires harder work in the gym to keep up with the power. But having said that there are some questionable champions out there so it would be easier to “pick and choose” the champions you are going to fight.
On the other hand, 20 title defenses is impressive as it not only shows consistency but it also proves you fought some of the best competition in your division. However, at least half of those defenses can be with anyone you choose which increases your odds of getting a favorable match-up for yourself.
So again, it really depends on how each accomplishment was achieved so I call it a tie.Comment
