Is Pac A 3-Division Champion?

[JOM'S]

beltholder and lineal champ @112
lineal champ @126
beltholder @122

i heard sometimes he is being introduced as former two time world champion, and one time world titlist ... sometimes two time world titlist and one time world champion !?

people got to remember that MAB fight would have been an official world title bout if Marco elected to pay the sanctioning FEES ...

but officially (alpha BELTS and would be recorded in history) for now PAC has two (one each for WBC & IBF), and when he faces MAB at SF it will be for a 3rd ...

Im not talking about the RING CHampionship. It has nothing to do with Barrera being the lineal champ.

i forgot some of the fighters but during the 70's there's 2 existing Featherweight champ. the other retire the other one lost the title to a fighter that will directly bring you to Marco Antonio Barrera. he's the Featherweight lineal CHAMP.

can somebody pls. help me with those names


*IF you consider Alphabet champions as a real division champ and your basis. then PAC is a 2 DIVision champion.

???

I thought Salvador Sanchez died while lineal featherweight champ

the lineage probably restarts with pedroza

[miron_lang]

I think so. i think its from pedroza

[miron_lang]

Thanks to BoxRec and Wminute i was able to get the sequence from Eusebio Pedroza


Pedroza was beaten by
Barry Mcguigan was beaten by
Steve Cruz was beaten by
Antonio Esparragoza was beaten by
Yong Kyun Park was beaten by
Eloy Rojas was beaten by
Wilfredo Vazquez was beaten by
Naseem Hamed was beaten by
Marco Antonio Barrera was beaten by
Emmanuel Pacquiao.

Alphabet BElts : 2
Lineal Championship : 1


It depends on your definition of 'DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP' and w/c is Legit.


* i have no idea if PAC was lineal in 112 and 122

He was the linear champion at flyweight, yes, as the lineage for his title at that weight at least goes as far back to the days of the great, Miguel Canto (apx. 30 years or so).

I do consider Pacquiao a three division champion, he was the top dog at 112, after Ayala left 122 he was the man, and then he blew out the kingpin in Barrera at 126. Pacquiao has conquered three divisions.

wrong

Pac was never close to being top dog at 112. Mark Johnson was considered light years better than everyone and its really not up for debate.

No one even knew who Pac was back then and he only held the title for a minute.


He is a 2 division champ in my eyes.

Manny Pacquiao won the IBF Flyweight title in December 1998, by which time Mark Johnson had vacated his flyweight belt and moved on up to 115 to campaign.

Haha kiddo, you might win some but you just lost 1. Pick your face up
