    so can you tell us who was the lineal flyweight champ back then?

    the sasakul is quite underrated actually. i'm surprised people are ranking hsi ledwaba win over sasakul when i think sasakul is a better fighter and much accomplished. also winning a championship before the age 20 is not an easy feat considering all the advantages stacked against your favor.

    Yes, I can: there was none.

    Being ranked #1 does not mean you are lineal champ. Sasakul was not. Pac went on to lose one title defense later, so he never picked it up afterward either.

    Please tell me if you've found some evidence which proves me wrong.

    And yes, it was undoubtedly a very, very impressive manner to win a first world title.

    Floyd last fought the best in Dec. 2002. Since then it's been nothing but cherry picking.

    flyweight linealship can be traced back from kittikasem-arbachakov-sasakul-pacquiao

    this is a good read about the history of flyweight division
