    We only have Pac to blame for this who sensationalized titles in different weight classes.
    Dude hasn't even won a title at 140 yet. What... the IBO and Ring? Who cares?!?!
    Pacquiao's a really bad example to use, everybody knows he was good enough. He could probably go down to 140 right now and destroy all the title-holders or at very least beat one of them. When people talk about Pacquiao or Mayweather as a multi-weight world champ, it's legit, Guerrero's situation is a little (or a lot) different. It's tantamount to lies really.

      LOL. Exactly. I'd even go even further and say 95% of the people that buy the PPVs and go to the fights can't even name one sanctioning body.

        I'm just saying...people are in love with multi weight and multi belt guys. That's why they're labeling Guerrero as a 6 time 4 weight champ

          Just throw three letters together and you'll bound to come up with one that exists somewhere.

          Shoot not even. Stick the letter B inbetween 2 letters and you probably have an organization

            Sure but there's a difference between interim belts and lineal. Everybody had Hatton as The Man at 140, no question, despite only holding an IBO belt. Remember Sergio was without an ABC belt for a long time, yet everyone treated him as The Champ.

              Was that before or after the Emeritus situation?

              Anyway.... Hatton was at the time and Pac beat him. i get what he's saying though.... IBO and the Ring aren't really considered world titles.
              Although beating somebody considered the lineal champ is better

                Sergio was given some diamond title, whatever that is. Ring is totally tainted now, but not so much then. It used to track the lineage fairly well, and when not, they'd usually make the right call (no Erdei as Ring champ). In Hatton's case, no question. Not only that, but he'd just destroyed IBF champ Paulie

                  IMO, in the end it doesn't matter because everyone recognizes him as an 8 division champ

                    Well I'm a fan clearly, and I don't really recognize that 8th as legit. But then I don't think DLH's 6th is legit either.

                      The IBO/Ring or the 154 belt?
