    I Personally think that Pac's accomplishments are a bit overrated by some people in the boxing community. Its real to see that he has only won alphabet titles @:

    Lightweight
    Super featherweight
    Super Bantamweight
    Flyweight

    to my recollection thats not 6 weight classes ... thats only 4 ... thats not a recrod in my eyes ... he definitely not tied with Oscar who has won championships in 6 different weight classes.
    He's not up there with Floyd who has won in 5 differernt weight classes.

    What I understand is SRL has the record for legitament titles @ 5.

    Please shed some light on him winning alphabet titles in other weight classes than the ones above ... and let me know who he fought.

    Titles are overrated. U got to appreciate the man's skills in the ring to really see his value.

    Why would you exclude lineal titles, but include stolen WBO trinkets?

    Millions of fighters have stolen WBO titles.

    Count the WBC from their formation to now, the WBA from their foundation to 2008, and the IBF from about 1990ish to now.

    I value winning lineal, non-trinket titles over Barrera and Hatton over winning WBO belts over Sturm and Bredahl, or winning two divisional titles in the same fight.

    I only put so much into all the different divisional belts anyway. It's impressive but has to be taken into context. There's more titles nowadays, more time to weigh-in before a fight.

    Excluding the only title that counts...

    This is just dumb.
