Pacquiao is not a 6 division champ - cannot be seven division by beating cotto

[Chups]

His most important, greatest, most memorable and most significant win was against Barrera back in 2003. At that time Marco was the featherweight lineal Champ.......it was the fight that catapulted Pacquiao to stardom. It was a championship fight more IMPORTANT than any other belted fight in the featherweights.

No he beat Morales in a grudge fight.
So therefore [Diaz]he won that Lightweight Title against Morales fair and square.
So Pacquiao won a fair WBC Lightweight Champion. David Diaz.

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

So by that same logic Cotto is not a real world champion because he's only won vacant titles. He never beat a recognized world champion.

Ouch..............

[VERDUGO]

Are you telling me David Diaz is a better fighter than Casa and that he was the man at 135?

I'm telling you that Diaz was a good champion whose beaten some good opponents like Santa Cruz(he beat Casamayor before JMM),Erik Morales in a close fight and Zab in the amateurs(I know it's the amateurs but he still beat Zab).
He also gave Kendall Holt Holt a tough fight and knocked him down.

on that same note...floyd doesnt even count his ibo belt..if he did he'd be a 7 time world champion...go figure

Why do you have that picture showing how Floyds foot was outside zabs?

[PEPE213]

did you compare roy to cotto????lmfao..roy had every belt you can get at 175....

Lmao!!
That's true Roy had literally every sanctioning title at 175.

That's true.
But answer this question.
Do you conider the International Boxing Organization [IBO] Title.
A real legit Championship?
I do.

[Pullcounter]

What?

Juan Diaz was the #1 contender not a champion.

Casa was the man.

David Diaz is garbage who got a gift over a shot Erik Morales.

juan diaz was the most credible 135 lber.

casamayor was semi shot and got a gift decision over cruz.

david diaz was a paper champ.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

His featherweight win over Barrera was probably his most significant one. Belt or no belt, Barrera was clearly the man.

[shadeyfizzle]

Ouch..............

Exactly. He wants to make a claim that theres a difference that lineal and alphabet belts are 2 different things so that Pacquiao's wins against "the man" in certain divisions shouldnt count towards his belt count. Ignoring the fact that they were the recognized champion at their division.

But if you go by that same logic he presented...Cotto never beat a world champion. Alphabet or otherwise. He's only won vacant belts.
