    Hi all,

    I've just been having a conversation about the Pacquiao vs Juan Manual Marquez fights. When they first fought it was for The Ring Featherweight title and their second contest was for The Ring Super-Featherweight title. Although a third fight is unlikely, if one did take place at Lightweight it would be for The Ring Lightweight title.

    Has there ever been an occassions where two fighters have fought each other in 3 different weight divisions for a World title in each?

    I always thought the rubber match was also at feather. It's strange how memory can pley tricks on you!

    How about lineal titles?

    Casamayor was, if my memory hasn't let me down, only The Ring champion at 135. He beat Coralles and lost it to Juan Manual Marquez who, in turn, has defended it once against Juan Diaz.
