    How many belts great fighters would of actually won?

    Praise for Pacman and Mayweather for being multi champs when there is 4-5 belts per weight, but how many if there was one belt?

    Guys like Fitzsimmons and Robinson had one belt and fewer weights, how many could they have won in today's system.

    I think it would be interesting....

    Mayweather was the legit world champion at 130,135 and 147.

    Pac was the legit champ at Fly, Feather, Super Feather (I think!) and Light Welter.
     
  4. I'd say Pac created it if nothing else, beating Barrera and Morales.

    If SRR was knocking about in this age of a million belts per weight class, and a weight class per 2lbs difference he could probably achieve a 'world' title at;

    LW
    LWW
    WW
    LMW
    MW
    SMW

    I'd add Super Feather to that, based on his Golden Gloves footage he'd of made SFW easy and pissed the competition within a year.

    And could've picked a lesser 'titlist' than Maxim and won one at LHW as well :yep

    Fitzsimmons would of had M, SM, LHW, C and H on his CV.

    There would be too many to mention if we had to name who wouldn't be a champion if there was one belt!!
