    Of course it did. Otherwise that means Chris Byrd, John Ruiz, Evander Holyfield (during the Ruiz fights), etc were never champions.

    Roy Jones was never heavyweight champ, and can't claim to have gone from middleweight to heavyweight champ.

    By your reckoning, Wladimir isn't heavy champ right now, and Floyd was never champion at 154. Or 140.

    Why isn't Wlad champ you ask? Well, he won Byrds belt, who was never a champion in the first place according to you.

    I'm not arguing about what's right, or who's recognised as being the best fighter in the division. Just about using the term "undisputed".

    I don't like the shitty way the ABC's do things ever. But to say people disregard them is just plain wrong. All the Floyd fans banging on about how many weight divisions he's been champ in do. Because how many of those was he undisputed in? 1? 2?

    Certainly not 5.
