Was Floyd Mayweather Ever The Lineal Lightweight Champion?

Of course he was noob

 

Floyd Mayweather Jr:

WBC & Ring champ @ 130 (would of been WBO had Corrales not vacated)
WBC & Ring Champ @ 135
WBC @ 140
WBC, IBF, IBO, Ring @ 147
WBC @ 154

That equals to 10 titles, linear in 3. The reason Floyd always says he is a 6 time champion is because he only counts "official" belts (wbc, wba, ibf).

 

Thats very noble of the self proclaimed best boxer ever in the history of the world..

 

Look, get rid of your Meth avy. Put Nas in and don't ever put Juelz Santana or any of those Punk ass Dipset phonies in your avy again either.

 

hmm... so, that's champ in 5 weight classes and linear in 3 then.

 

It wouldve been 4 linear championships if he wouldve fought Hatton at 140 ...

 

yeah. but floyd fought him @147 instead where he had the advantage, unlike pac who fought hatton at his natural weight class of 140.

 

Wrong.

Hatton "needed more U.S. exposure" when Mayweather challenged him at 140. Hatton turned the fight down, not Floyd.

 

You mean if Hatton would have fought Mayweather at 140.

 

It wasn't about an advantage ... it wouldn't have mattered if they had fought an any weight class ... he got outclassed and knocked out ... Hatton wasn't as skilled as mayweather

 

Floyd got turned down by Cotto and Hatton at 140 ... he called them out around the time he fought Gatti.

Vivian Harris turned down a six figure payday fight with Mayweather only to fight Maussa and get knocked out.
