    Pacman could get 2 more titles at different weight classes. At 147 he could get Cotto's belt, this is a 50/50 fight. If he wins that he could fight Chavez Jr if he gets a belt at 154. I definitely think he could do this. If Arum is really greedy, he might match Pavlik up with Pacman this would be crazy but would make a lot of money.

    Meh, these alphabet titles don't mean **** these days. You think whooping on David Diaz was actually a big accomplishment? I don't think so.

    It matters more who he beat rather than the titles he picks up... unless he happens to pick up the lineal titles like he did with Hatton.

    These days it's not so difficult to run rampant in many divisions, picking off belt holders. So sure, it is possible.

    Even the ring "lineal" titles can be misleading because the champ is never forced to face his number 1. Casa was clearly not the number 1 lightweight for some years.

    It's easy for somebody who has not stepped on the ring and only does armchair analysis to diss a fighter who risk his life and limb for a living. Diaz may be perceived as weak but he won his title legitimately and had only one loss before he fought Pacquiao.

    Been in and out of boxing gyms since age 11 *******, so don't pull rank on me!

    And in the great sceme of things Diaz's title was as meaningless as it gets. Just another nobody fighter who happened to get in line for a worthless title because he has the right promoter connections. Don't try and fool anyone into thinking it was anything more than that you know-nothing ******* twat!

    Depending on how things go, he should drop back down to 135 (even though Freddie has already made it clear he won't) and try and take that Ring belt from Marquez. That would be his 5th legitimate championship, wouldn't it?

    titles are overrated anyways including "lineal" and "the ring" belt which is nothing more than a popularity contest imo. it depends on the fighter they face. Nobody is going to remember what titles Pacquiao won against Hatton but everyone will remember the fact that he laid his ass out

    that win put IBO on the map. I've never heard of that belt before.
