    You sure he didn't win it?

    Maybe Espinosa?

    They didn't have a championship policy at his time of prominence.

    dan-b is right of course.

    But Naseem was in line to gain the crown.

    Following Sanchez's untimely death, The Ring awarded their title to Eusebio Pedroza. Pedroza lost to Barry McGuigan, who lost to Stevie Cruz, who lost to Antonio Esparragoza, who lost to Young Kwun Park, who lost to Eloy Rojas, who lost to Wilfredo Vazquez, who lost to Naseem in April 1998.

    some clever dicks would say that he did win the 'ring' title. TBooze was that lineage off the top of your head?

    :good LOL, it is a party trick of mine.

    At the time it (the Featherweight lineage) was the second longest to only the Heavies, and I know that one off by heart as well... I remember having a life once! :-(
