    Has there ever been a WBA WBC WBO IBF champion

    Lewis never held the WBO

    Jones never held the WBO

    Did Hopkins have all 4

    I cant think of a guy who had all 4 without getting stipped soon after

    Only Hopkins has unified all 4. Taylor is the only other one to have all 4 at once.

    Luck is a bigger factor than skill in this case. You have to be lucky to find other belt holders willing to fight and hope your shitty sanctioning organization won't strip you for some lame reason. Wlad could easily unify all 4 belts in two more fights if Haye grew a pair and his brother retired and someone else had the WBC belt and was willing to fight Wlad as well.

    Bernard Hopkins, Jermain Taylor, Tyson held all 3 belts before a 4th was born and Jones Unified like 30 titles at Light Heavyweight though he never got all 4

    Hopkins held all 4 PLUS he beat the WBA regular champion William Joppy while he was the WBA Super Champion. So he was the WBA Super Doper Champion.

    He's the only guy to be undisputed super flyweight champ, meaning unified IBF, WBC, WBA but they never counted the WBO in that, I guess. He didn't have that belt anyway.

    I think Calzaghe narrowly missed out on doing so because he dropped the IBF belt before his fight with Kessler, can someone confirm this?????
