    Tyson held all 3 belts and was dubbed the UNDISPUTED heavyweight champion beating tony tucker.

    However there was a huge problem with the sanctioning UNDISPUTED claim.

    The claim was heavily disputed

    Because of course spinks was regarded as the rightful champion holding lineal + ring championships.

    In the end Tyson ended all remaining disputes after beating spinks.

    But this is a example that If the lineal world is not held in tandem with all the belts

    A all belt sanctioning UNDISPUTED claim will always be in dispute

    The Italian Dragon did it when he beat Bernard Hopkins for the light heavyweight title.
