List of 3 division lineal champions, boxing history

[El Canela]

Again, I don’t care.

How can someone coming off a loss, fight a guy who’s 2-1-1 in his last 4 for the vacant lineage?

On top of the fact there are other current champions in the division at the time.

How can that possibly make any logical sense?

Title belts have nothing to do with lineage, first off. There have been several world titlists that weren't even ranked in the top 10 by Ring or TBRB. Crawford vs Beltran was a lineal title fight even though Crawford only had the WBO belt, Beltran had no belts, and other guys had belts at the time.

When Pacquiao lost to Floyd he didn't fall in the TBRB rankings. He was just behind Floyd before the fight and nobody jumped him after Floyd beat him. Floyd retired leaving Pacquiao as the #1 fighter. Bradley beat Vargas (who was 26-0 at the time) and stopped Rios (who was coming off a win over 33-0 Mike Alvarado), which elevated him to #2. #1 fought #2 with the title vacant, thus a new lineage.

Educating this boxing ignorants is pretty useless. They dont even believe what "experts" say..

Mate, I’ve forgotten more about boxing than you will ever know

There is a criteria that needs to be met to make a new Lineage. Do you even know what that criteria is? If so, how did Pacquaio-Bradley fit that? You tell me.
