Were Dariusz Michalczewski and Joe Calzaghe undisputed champions, or not?

[Pirao]

At LHW and SMW respectively?

[jrosales13]

They were lineal champs, nobody else had a claim for being the realy champ only they did.

I'm not asking if they were lineal, but undisputed.

[Shattered Jaw]

Calzaghe was definitely the best at 168 behind Froch, yes.

When you lineal champ nobody else could dispute being the real champ at that weight. So yes they were undisputed. But, Roy Jones had the WBA, WBC, and IBF was he undisputed?

Yes, he was.

[jrosales13]

Yes, he was.

I thought Dariusz was undisputed? How did Roy become undisputed when Dariusz didn't lose and was the rightful lineal champ?

[IMDAZED]

Dariusz never had the WBC belt.

[jrosales13]

Dariusz never had the WBC belt.

I know he didn't that is the point I was trying to make this guy in another thread.

This is why he made this one.

I said to be undisputed you need to win all the major belts so nobody could dispute your reign.

Then he started pointed out Joe and Dariusz being undisputed without winning all the major belts.

[Pirao]

I thought Dariusz was undisputed? How did Roy become undisputed when Dariusz didn't lose and was the rightful lineal champ?

Because he unified the division again, Dariusz didn't lose so he was the linear champ still, but Roy Jones was undisputed when he unified 3 belts.
