Thanks for the clarity but wasnt Eriks 4th title when he beat that bum for a vacant belt at 140 when he was coming off a loss to Maidana?

I know Pacs "8 division" title is a load of rubbish because he won a light middleweight title weighing 144 and his opponent wasnt allowed to weigh in at 154 limit either ( an opponent who suffered a career ending KO from a washed up Mosley )
Then his welterweight title was at 145 catchweight so that was a proper divisional title win either. Assume Pac beat Hatton for his 140 title but wasnt Bradley the man at 140 and Hatton was just a Floyd leftover. You have to go back to Diaz before Pac last proper divisional win which says it all. Pac was never number one at feathereight either because he gt a draw when he challenged for the titles against Marquez.

Marquez' fourth divisional title remains a mystery. I imagine they just handed him a title for beating Pacman who was coming off a loss?! if he wants to be a 4 weight champ properly then he has to beat the welterweight champ Floyd Mayweather but we saw what happend when he got his shot.

Yeah nevermind you were right it was at 140 where he won the vacant title. He only fought once at 147 in his very first comeback fight and there he won an "international vacant title" which is even lesser grade.

He won an "interim" title so people dont really consider it a 4th weight class. He would have gotten pac's belt if pac didnt just loose it to bradley.

Now with morales he won a 4th title at 147 but it was a vacant belt in a fight against a guy who never fought there before so people consider it a joke. On the flipside it cancels out the robbery he had to David Diaz at 135 which should have been his 4th weight class.

Diaz kept the belt then lost to Pac, the 135 belt pac got as one of his 8 weight classes is kind of devalued since he shouldnt have had that belt and juan diaz was considered a better opponent with david diaz being the easiest guy to beat to get a belt at the time.

he was awarded the interim title after he fought a gun shy fedchenko. bradley was the champion before he vacated and stole the WBO 147 belt . instead of pitting marquez against the next mandatory challenger for the 140 belt, they just handed it over. the guy never even defended it once
