I believe today that as long as they have the two main belts along with one of the other major belts and the lineal title, they are undisputed. Or if the other belt is vacant or won in a vacant title fight, the main guy is undisputed. That's from memory though so not too sure.
Tszyu was the undisputed champion though and the only guy to do it at 140 since Pryor.
A the WBO gets more and more recognition eventually they will have to hold each and every major title to be undisputed champion. We will rarely ever see another true undisputed champion though I think. Too much crap and bureaucratic bollocks going down.
I think most recently because of the burgeoning importance if the WBO and with the long time reign of great fighters that held it like Calzaghe, Hopkins etc, in the last couple of years they are adding it as one of the undisputed title needed to have that designation.
