I think it sounds important to people still. And it used to be what happened in boxing before the 4 title structure we know now. You either had to beat the man to be the man or you had to be among the top 2 & beat the other top 2 guy to be the man if the man retired. Thats a thing people wanna think can still exist I think.
Its more or less bs with the 4 titles these days. I think George Foreman was the biggest destroyer of what the "lineal title" meant for me. There's definitely more examples & maybe better ones, but Foreman killed the concept for me.
