    Next division to establish a new championship lineage?

    So far, 8/17 of all boxing weight divisions have lineal champions:

    Fury at Heavyweight
    Briedis at Cruiserweight
    Beterbiev at Light Heavyweight
    Canelo at Middleweight
    Charlo at Jr. Middleweight
    Lopez at Lightweight
    Rigondeaux at Jr. Featherweight
    Estrada at Jr. Bantamweight

    Which division do you think will crown a new lineal champion? And what do you think are the #1 vs. #2 of the divisions without lineal champions?

    EDIT: I messed up with the poll, Jr. Middleweight is supposed to be Welterweight...

              Charlo is not lineal. He's not recognized as such by TBRB or CBZ. He's The Ring champion but he wasn't ranked in the top 2 before the Rosario fight universally. TBRB and many others still had Rosario #1 and J-Rock #2. Charlo needs to beat J-Rock to be lineal.

                Pacquiao is not considered lineal because he announced his retirement after the Bradley fight.

                Presently the lineal welterweight title is vacant and there is disagreement about who the consensus #2 is

                TBRB:
                1. Spence
                2. Pacquiao
                3. Crawford

                Ring:
                1. Spence
                2. Crawford
                3. Pacquiao

                BoxRec:
                1. Spence
                2. Crawford
                3. Pacquiao

                ESPN:
                1. Spence
                2. Pacquiao
                3. Crawford

                  100% it's either 140 or 118.

                  Those are guaranteed to have undisputed next.

                    Nope... He retired... Any forms of retirement announcement is tantamount to abdication...

                    Bantamweight was vacant since 1987...

                    Speaking of those 2 divisions you pointed out, coincidentally, those lineage were last held by GrandPac alongside 147...

                    According to Mr. Mike DeLisa via an email, CBZ doesn't recognize Briedis, too... Not sure about Charlo or Lopez... I'll try asking once again at the end of the month...

                    TBRB seems to be the only major experts panel body who doesn't recognize Charlo as the lineal champion... The Ring, LBC.com and BoxingScene had him as the lineal, ESPN and BN have him at #1 (they don't have a lineal list)...

                    This isn't the only time TBRB doesn't recognize some universally recognized lineal champions though... They didn't recognize Darchinyan at 115, Mayweather at 147 (after beating Mosley) and Klitschko at 200+ (ater beating Chagaev) when they started in 2012...

                    Will Inoue-Casimero still happen though?
