  • Can someone give me the run down on what unifying titles is, what lineal champion is

    What is the difference from being undisputed champion, unified champion, ring champion, lineal champion. I need the rundown.

    Aren't they pretty self-explanatory?

    Unified = 2 or more belts

    Undisputed = all 4 belts

    Lineal = man who beat the man who beat the man etc...

        Ring: Ring Magazine Champ

        Unified: 2 or more major belts

        Lineal: Man that beat the man, the real champ. Begins with the clear top 2 contenders fighting for it. Can be lineal without an actual belt

        Undisputed: All major world titles, includes all of the above as well

            10-4 thanks. I think my main confusion was unified and undisputed. It's all clear as day now.

              Yeah Ring Magazine has its own ratings. The Ring Belt is usually awarded when the 1 and 2 in the division fight.

              Currently? There are no undisputed champions I don't think. Probably have to go back to Hopkins at middleweight for the last time someone actually physically held all 4 belts. Calzaghe basically did at SMW but was stripped of the IBF shortly before the Kessler fight.

                Got it, all these technicalities, had to clarify them.

                  Not really, the ring belt can be given to #2 vs #5

                    Manny pacquiao the only 4 lineal champ. Something Floyd will never be since he's a chicken.
