Why the hype of wining a title in 7 divisions?

[VERDUGO]

that belt is a freakin joke, a Catchweight Championship?? who the hell would be proud of that? oh im the p4p catchweight champ!

140-147 is a Welterweight fight.
Cotto is ONLY dropping 1lb and he'll be around 160 come fight night.
Pac is moving up 7 lbs.
Don't hate just because Pac made Oscar quit like a lil b*tch .

When back then there weren't as many
Inflation my friends. 3 division then is like 10 now.

Actually 4 divisions then is like 7 now, but remind me again how many people have won 4 of the old, original divisions?

If this ain't a bait/hate thread, I don't know what is.

In any case, if you don't think it's a big deal to win 7 titles, I don't care who's doing it, you are not a boxing fan. Someone's stan maybe?

I give Pacquiao for his wins in other divisions this one...idk

The fight is at a catchweight...and a diamond belt? That's ******ed...

But I will give him a lotta credit if he beats Cotto...I hope the weight doesn't affect Miguel tho so that can't be something to take away from the win...

But I hope Cotto spanks him

It's still amazing its hard to believe Manny been fighting from 108 pounds all the way to W.W. and still looking good.

doest mean **** espcially when you didt defend your belts as many times as atg from the past

[120]

lets see, these were the traditionals:

* Flyweight (Maximum 112 pounds)
* Bantamweight (118)
* Featherweight (126)
* Lightweight (135)
* Welterweight (147)
* Middleweight (160)
* Light Heavyweight (175)
* Heavyweight (unlimited)

for a guy that started at 106, he would have been in 5 which it would have been a LOT back in the days. The problem would have been the sanctioning bodies. Instead of having 4 belts, it was only one so becoming champion was much harder. Now a guy like PAC could have still gotten 112/118/126/135(this one pushing it) so that's a potential for 2-4 belts and if he was crazy enough to go up to 147 and get a belt that would have been insane.

Now Cotto is the No1 WW in my eyes, so regardless if is at 145 instead of 147 it is still a HUGE deal. But as u can see those 7 divisions would not have been 3

[120]

the big difference in divisions was from 147 and on in my opinion. It would be like Mayweather go up and beat pavlik after Baldomir...THIS IS WHY THE OLD ONES ARE REGARDED AT A HIGHER SCALE

[chinoy]

your 60,000 points to my 60,000 points if you are so sure.....

deal?

He is awesome but who has he beat in the last 2 fights?

Oscar -out of his prime, weight drained
and
Hatton- very over-rated

I am very sure that Cotto will KO him....
