you can add terry mcgovern. he knocked out frank erne (reigning lightweight champion). it wasn't sanctioned for the title but it was a knock out, not a newspaper decision.

Pacquaio’s 4, not 5.

I don’t care how many times people act like Pacquaio-Bradley was for the vacant Lineage, it wasn’t.

Damn those boxing historians/experts/writers/journalists who made Pacquiao the only 5 division lineal champion.

Like I said, I don’t care who says that.

To start a new Lineage, the rules are the universal #1 and #2 have to fight.

How could that possibly be the case with Pacquaio and Bradley in 2016?

Pacquaio was coming off a loss, Bradley was 2-1-1 in his last 4 fights and the division was wide open with other champions.

There’s no logical way that could make sense.

TBRB had Pac and Bradley as the top 2 fighters at the time of their fight. That's largely where Pac's lineal claim at 147 comes from. I don't mind if people want to discount it but TBRB is the most trustworthy rankings we have available to us.
