He is not a 6 as i ahev heard many claim. If he beat JMM in the 1st fight and won both titles he would now be a 6 weight world champ, on par with Oscar. At the moment he is a 5 weight world champ. Can someone name any others? I can only think of 4 weight at the moment
Hes 6 if you include the ring belts only 4 if you dont also hes the first fighter to hold 4 lineal titles in 4 different divisions
Has there ever been a WBA/WBC/IBF Flyweight Champion though? Lineal means the recognition of undisputed i.e. if a WBA/WBC/IBF champion is stripped of one of their belts hes still the lineal champion. An undisputed champion is the lineal champion also, and visa versa. I.e. you cant have an undisputed champion who is not the lineal champion AND Visa versa.
They're lucky Pac skipped 115 and 118 or else he may have been an 8 weight world champion. That would have put him so far away from the rest.
