Floyd is a 3 division champion, ODLH is a 4 division champion

Exactly right. I never considered Roy the HW champ either.

I thought he was rated #1 LW by the Ring and then he beat Ruelas who I think was #2 or #3 I can't remember. Or was it Miguel Angel Gonzalez

I'm not sure who he beat but the ring never recognized him as champ at LW
JWW WW JMW is still not bad though

The Ring stopped awarding titles that time though so we have to go by #1 beating #2 or unification maybe TheManchine or Silencers could clear this up

technically, he was only the lineal champ at 154lbs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Ring_world_champions

but he was universally recongnised as the best fighter at 135lbs, 140lbs, 147lbs, and 154lbs at one time or another.

Floyd wasnt universally recongnised as the best at WW really, but he did win the lineal championship so you have to give him that credit.
Kostya was the real champ at 140 when Mayweather won a title there, so you cant call him lineal champ at that weight.
154lbs was a mess when Mayweather went there, but there was no clear cut way you could call him the universally recongnised best at 154lbs.
