    Alphabet belts is not teh same as lineal championships, he is a 4 division lineal title and a 4 division title holder.

    If he beats Cotto he will become a 5 division belt holder!!!!!
    it's still 7

      pretty idiotic to judge a modern fighter using standards from the past.

It's still pretty impressive though...
        disagree. no one's ever done it yet, so it can't be overrated.

        pretty ignorant to not give credit to pac cause there are more weight classed today. it isn't his fault. he shouldn't be judged using old school standards. he's a modern fighter.

        when a mediocre boxer gets seven belts/4 linear titles in his career, then you can say manny is overrated.

          correct me on this one

          6 and a half division does not total up to 145 pounds.

          more like 6 and 7.1

          so if you round it to the nearest division it would be 7

            Somewhat yes I do, I just have a problem with guys who kill themselves to have a huge advantage, thats not what boxing should be about, it distorts wins from being on a skill level to being on a size issue.

              Be more bad ass without a catch weight but whatcha gonna do.
              here's your answer TS.

                Isn't that what floyd's done, he outweighed marquez tons of tons of muscle by cheating as if he is not confident enough of his skills?

                  There ARE a lot of divisions and belts right now, and THAT is why this makes it so significant. Even though we are in an era of MANY belts, no one yet has accomplished 7 division championships.
