    oh dear.
    undisputed... the clue is in the NAME!!

    these days i suppose you need all 4 major belts as the WBO is has more recognition. but a few years a go it was IBF/WBC/WBA and as the WBO didnt count then you was undisputed.

              It's hard to say.

              Let's say Hatton beat Malignaggi. Bradley unifies one of the other belts another guy unifies the other two belts. There is a fight with four belts on the line and the winner still couldn't be viewed as undisputed because Ricky Hatton would still be undefeated and the man in that division and the ring magazine champion at that weight?

              Seems unlikey to be able to unify all four titles anyway, the IBF strip everyone almost instantly for not fighting mandatories.

                JMM has the ring title so if he won he wouldn;t be undisputed as Pacman has a LW title

                    It's the WBA, WBC and IBF. Assuming the WBO champion is lame (which is usually the case).
