Pacquiao 6 division titles, not 7.

Last time I checked, 145 is still welterweight

WW limit is 147, not 145. So real WW fight is at 147, this fight was catch-weight fight.

And Pacman won his 6th belt, but that doesn't make you a division champion, it makes you a belt holder (Mosley is the champion, and he won title at real WW limit). Same thing with ODLH at 160. He got the belt, but everyone knows that B-Hop was the champion. Pacman wasn't even ranked before WBO decided to earn some extra money.

5 division world titles and 2 linear division titles

7 is legit. He's the real thing.

First of all I'd like to congratulate Pacquiao for beating the hell out of Cotto in their fight. I had picked Cotto to win but it was clear who was the better fighter that night and any other night for that matter. However I have a beef with the claim of having won a 147 title when they fought at a 145 top weight. I really don't think it would've made a big difference in the outcome but if Pacquiao/Roach wanted a title @ 147 they should've fought at 147. Even if both parts agreed to the terms the WBO simply had to refuse to give a title to someone who fought at a different weight. Once again, I'm not hating on Pac. I love the guy and he's definitely an all time great but I won't recognize him as a 147 champion until he actually wins a championship fight at 147.

147 pounds is only the Welterweight limit. Meaning you can't weigh in over 147 and still be a Welterweight.

Anything above 140, and below 147, is Welterweight territory.

When we say limit, it means maximum idiot... 141 to 147 is welterweight and not 147 alone... 147 is welterweight limit... now welterweight FIXED... if you wont agree, make your own boxing organization..

BTW, should we still discuss this crap over and over again?

Okay, so Manny can defend his belt at 141 lbs and still be legit ww belt holder? Great!

And why insults? If you can't write in a polite manner, don't write at all.

We have hundred topics about the fight, same thing discussed all over again, so why can't we have this one.
