If you have the JT situation for example like Cant stated
to me regardless of he has the belts he is still the man to beat.
antoher example is at 154 to me the lineal champ is still Martinez and he doesnt even have a belt

What did that belt even mean?80% of people didn't even hear of Abraham until 2006.
The belt means who pays for it.Being champion means you have to fight for it.

lets say that Marinez wins all the belts at 160 except lets say the IBO and lets say Chavez Jr has that belt
I would still say that Martinez is the lineal champ because of the competition he has faced to get those belts
just because one guy has the belt doesnt mean he isnt lineal
Hatton was the lineal champ at 140 and I think he only had two belts

Lineal,undisputed,true,real,whatever you wanna call it that means you are the champion.
Lennox Lewis never had all 4 belts and he was undisputed.Barrera never had any belt and he was universally seen as the champ.
That's all that matters.
I don't care if someone won the vacant interim silver title and thinks he's the best because he hasn't beaten the guy whos the best.
Do you think the winner if Jacobs-Pirog can dispute who is the middleweight champion?

Isn't it really who the fans say is the man at a weight class regardless of whether they have any belts at all?
Suppose Berto collects the IBF and WBA from Zaveck and Senchecko, then Pac drops his WBO title or gets stripped for whatever reason. After that lets say Floyd and Pac fight, would anyone dispute the winner of that as the real WW champion just because a bunch of trinkets aren't on the line?
I wouldn't, the fighters and their wins make the champions not a bunch of trophies.
