    He held all major titles except wbo (was lightly regarded and held by linear champ DM)

    He held if i remember corectly

    wba
    Wbc
    Ibf
    Ibo
    Wbf
    Iba
    Nba

    Dont believe it has been done by anyone else.

    Also wasnt Darius Michaelchewsky stripped of Wba title because he did not vacete Wbo title?

    A prime DM...

    He might have been the first to expose that chin
