If these belt collectors want to do something really impressive then start clearing out divisions not fighting paper titlist after paper titlist.
Didn't he win a title by quitting? then Roman Martinez (terrible champion), Zlaticanan (who?) Lipinets (again who? some failed kickboxer with a handful of fights).
He's never even been in a 50/50.
His resume is no better than the next mans only the C level guys they've been beating wasn't handed vacant titles.

Originally posted by WBC WBA IBF View PostThat's what I'm saying. It's even harder than this thread suggests.
Since September 2011 (less than 7 years), there have been 8 more fighters that have become 4-weight champions. The accomplishment has become watered down.
The standard now lies at the 5-weight mark (Hearns, Leonard, De La Hoya (6), Mayweather, and Pacquiao (8)).

Originally posted by Dip_Slide View PostIt's a good accomplishment for Mikey but I think he's even better than that. I think Mikey could be a unified champion at 135 AND 140 lbs at the same time. Yes, he's that much better than the current crop of champions at these weights.
I like that he didn't forget about the unfinished business at 135, he can still go down to 135 to fight Easter, which Mikey should beat in a competitive fight and then fight Linares, which would be a great fight between the 2 best fundamentally sound fighters in the sport and then Mikey could move back up to fight one of the other champs at 140. Now that's an accomplishment to talk about and after he's done with all of that and there's nobody else to fight at 140 then he can try his luck at 147 in a big money fight that he can retire after.
Hopefully the IBF don't pull some of thier notorious bull**** and strip Mikey for fighting at another weight class and postponing one of their meaningless mandatories. The hardest thing about unifying these days are these money hungry sanctioning bodies forcing fighters to fight meaningless fights nobody wants to see so that they can make some money, hopefully they give Mikey the chance to chase greatness.

Best wins of Broner were Ponce de León and a shot Malignaggi.
Best wins of García are Salido, the same Broner and Lipinets that was better than a shot Paulie.
Plus, García is way better than Broner.
Poor hater.

García is way better and have better resume in 4 divisions than Broner.
Same fighter that was schooled by García.
