It happened once, it can happen again. Likely not for a very long time, though. Do I see any current fighter doing it, nope. -

Nobody will beat his 8 divisions,but Canelo has already been lineal 5x in his career if you count the 4 official times hes won the lineal title(Trout,Lara,Cotto,Ggg) & the 5th time he would've qualified again as the lineal when he beat Jacobs,but Nelo was already lineal from beating ggg, but its still him once again fighting the divisions top guy. When he signed to face Kovalev he was ranked #1 in the division by ring & a few others,but nelo wasn't#2 so that doesn't qualify as lineal like v Jacobs when it was#1 v #2.Comment

He meant Lineal in weight divisions.Nobody will beat his 8 divisions,but Canelo has already been lineal 5x in his career if you count the 4 official times hes won the lineal title(Trout,Lara,Cotto,Ggg) & the 5th time he would've qualified again as the lineal when he beat Jacobs,but Nelo was already lineal from beating ggg, but its still him once again fighting the divisions top guy.

Pacquiao was the Lineal Flyweight Champion
Pacquiao was the Lineal Featherweight Champion
The Lineal Super Featherweight champion
The Lineal Light Welterweight Champion
and the Lineal Welterweight champion.
It can be achieved when there are more weight classes, but it doesn't mean as much anymore. Being the no.1 guy for 5 weight classes and being a champion in 8 is the reason why Pacquiao is the greatest of his generation.Comment
