mosley is not the linear champ at ww..why do people think this??

[Easy-E]

How would the #1 fighter fighting the #3 WW be for the lineal title?

According to the ring, Pac is number 1 and Floyd is number 2.

That just the point. None of these fighters, (Cotto, Mosley or Marg) was ever deemed the man.
Floyd retired with the lineal WW title.

Cotto was deemed "the man", then Marg after he he him, then Shane after he beat Marg. This is another reason I've though Floyd should have fought Mosley before Pac. It would lead to a lineal championship if he beat Shane first. If Im not mistaken, to put a lineal title back together you need the majority of titles, not all.

For who? Pac aint fighting Mosley so its not up for grabs. If they decided to put it on the line with Pac/Floyd which I bet they probably will then yeah.

IF Pac fights Mosley it will be for the lineal title...........Pac vs. Floyd MAYBE.....I don't know exactly the rules.

[Easy-E]

sounds like bull**** to me. who gives a **** about a title belt, it matters who you fight in your weight, not by knocking off guys with bull**** titles along the way. belts=bull****.

the lineal title is not actully a title belt, it is figurative, signing the fighter who is the true champion at that weight.
It cannot be won in a vacant championship like some suggest, only by defeating the previous champion.

Nope.

just because people say you are "the man" at a particular weight does not mean you have the lineal title. Sure people said Cotto was the best at that weight, but he didnt have the title. Also, PWill beat Marg, Marg beat Cotto and then Marg is the man? How does that work?
