Yeah Larry is right. The lineal champion is "the man who beat the man". It was started by Margarito vs Cotto. Margarito beat Cotto, Mosley beat Margarito, Mayweather beat Mosley. Mayweather has the crown and is the man to beat at WW because he "beat the man who beat the man". It's different The Ring title which Floyd held both Ring/Lineal titles when he won them back in 2006.Comment
