since floyd is now once again the linear ww world champion

[infamous larryx]

He's not the Lineal CHampion because of the Cotto, Mosley, Marg complication.

Marg and Mosley at the time were not #1 and #2 obviously.


Lineal = Winner of #1 and #2 which is not the case

sorry man its a fact..links have already been posted..margo-shane started a new lineage..cause margo had just beaten cotto

[Castor_Troy]

well..ring and linear are 2 differant things kev,,, sometimes they're the same but alot of times they're not

Before Marg-Mosley


1. Margarito
2. Cotto



Marg-Mosley wasnt for the Lineal Title

[Castor_Troy]

He is the linear champ. Noobs.

You still think so if Floyd is from Michigan?

Before Marg-Mosley


1. Margarito
2. Cotto



Marg-Mosley wasnt for the Lineal Title

Marg was coming off a win against the #2 GUY.

So the #1 vs #3 in that case is for the lineage title.

[Castor_Troy]

shane-margo started the new lineage once floyd retired

You're an idiot and a noob if you truly believe that.

Mosley just lost to Cotto prior to that fight.

Lineal = Absolutely the 2 best fighter of a division duking it out....You got it now?

no agenda here...but he was already a 6 time champ..he won the ww world title again so that makes him a 7 time champ..right??

I smell agenda but whatever....

If there was no agenda you would say he is now a 6 time champions instead of claiming 7 time champion.

He won titles from 130-154 that is 5 weight-classes he never lost and retired once and reclaimed it with the Shane win. That is a 6 time champion in 5 weight-classes and a 4 time lineal champion in 3 weight-classes.

call me what you want..im posting facts like it or not..floyds the linear champ

[Castor_Troy]

Marg was coming off a win against the #2 GUY.

So the #1 vs #3 in that case is for the lineage title.

Are you not talking about the RING?

Lineal should be certain. Shane Mosley just lost before that fight.


Show me a precedence of #1 and #3 duly recognized for the lineal title.

[Castor_Troy]
