Are we pretending that Floyd has those titles still legitimately?
He has them because the WBA/WBC are hopelessly corrupt, and won't enforce mandatories on him or strip him of those titles - like they would with most other boxers.
He won them legitimately by beating the title holders in the ring...its pretty simple...Cotto and Canelo
It wasn't no Leonard vs LaLonde going on....making the champ come down 7 pounds to fight for belts at 168(newly created or vacated I believe) and 175
DLH fought Hopkins at 156, Cotto vs Martinez was a catchweight and both were for legit lineal titles
Not the first catchweight, wont be the last....dude outweighed him by almost 20 pounds fightnight
Canelo agreed to the catchweight, weighed 153 in his prior fight so how is it not legit and he dominated the kid
The only thing corrupt about the fight was CJ Ross' scorecard

The catchweight is irrelevant
The issue is that most other boxers would be stripped of titles if they tried to do what Floyd has done. You need money if you want to have unified titles in two divisions, and keep them without having mandatories thrown at you.

Youve just posted a lot of dribble...you may have as well just kept this in your head, as theres nothing constructive to be made of it
You'll find the post he was replying to has nothing to do with his response, he has totally misunderstood what I said

you do know that tony canzoneri and barney ross fought for two titles at one time for two different weight classes right?
If a fighter can make the weight and holds the titles he should be able to defend simaltaneously

The WBC and WBA have not enforced their mandatories on Floyd, nor have stripped him for not taking them, hence he still is unified in two divisions. It's not because of his skill, its because of corruption.
Theres a million ways to praise Floyd for his skills, because he is an ATG fighter. But saying hes great because hes managed to be unified in two divisions at one time, is a bad way to go about it.
