Ray leonard and thomas hearns are the only ones who actually did it.

You’re going to have to explain this one.

How so?

Man, Nonito just needs to retire and give it up before he gets seriously fucked up. It’s very sad to see him still fighting at 40 because he is obviously broke.

Thomas Hearn didn’t do it either. Only Ray Leonard did. Explanation. The WBO and IBF Don’t count. All of Leonards titles were from the WBC and the WBA. The WBO is like the IBO.

I know but surely you’re not counting his Light Heavyweight Title?

[Chris Hanson]

Definitely not counting Hearns WBO title nor De La Hoys or Pacs Jeremy Williams etc. fake title like the ibf. Only Ray Leonard. Also not counting Pacmans ring title. Not counting Rays LH or Floyds when he fought Canelo for a title under the allowed weight limit. The floyd won was extra ******.

Nonito’s still fighting? Holy sheeite! Lol

So that would mean only 4 for Leonard then right?

147, 154, 160 and 168 (if that one even counts, sketchy if you ask me)

Floyd beat De La Hoya though at the full limit for the WBC.

So Floyd would be 5;

WBC - 130, 135, 140, 147, 154

If that’s true than yes. The Wbo and Ibf are fake. Why is Leonards sketchy? You’re right it was 4 . He won the super middleweight the same night
he won the light heavy. Did Lalonde make the super middleweight? I’m very curious. Floyd only has 4. His 5th was for Canelos title that was fought under the weight limit for the class. No one has 5. De La Hoya has 4. Maybe Pac? But I doubt it. Most of his titles were wbo

No Floyd does have 5.

130 - WBC vs Hernandez

135 - WBC vs Castillo

140 - WBC vs Gatti

147 WBC vs Baldomir

154 WBC vs De La Hoya


He beat De La Hoya at the Jr Middleweight for the WBC title and he also beat Cotto at the Jr Middleweight limit for the WBA Title.

His Canelo win was the 3rd time he'd won a title at Jr Middleweight.

So Floyd has 5 - 130, 135, 140, 147 and 154.

Leonard's "Super Middleweight/Light Heavyweight" title never sat right with me because the fight should have happened at LHW since Lalonde had the belt there. I'm never an overly big fan of "vacant" titles in general.
