Floyd has beaten 5 lineal champions in a row

[jrosales13]

Wait a minute.........

Baldi was Lineal.

Hernandez was Lineal.

Castillo was Lineal.

Corralles dropped his belt before fighting Floyd or that wouldve been Lineal too.

I don't think Castillo was lineal at 135 at the time. I think Floyd got the lineal claim in the rematch not in the first fight. The title was vacant and both Floyd and Castillo were ranked #1 and #2.

How would the Corrales fight be lineal if Floyd was already the lineal champion of that weight-class when he beat Chicanito?

What site is this? I been looking for this kind of stuff.

cyberboxing.

cyberboxing and ring both do their own lineage.

Floyd is 1 of our greatest fighters...the haters just need to see that!
Floyd is a big deal, there is none higher right now. As he would say, that are trying to make a fighter to beat him

That much is true......

That was not necessary

[2501]

Regardless, Floyd fans shouldnt even care about these belts. "Belts do nothing but collect dust" so If he doesn't care, they shouldnt care
