If that is the case, then Fernando Montiel is not a champion either.

If that is the case, then Cotto was never champion at 140...

Nor is Shannon Briggs, or were Lamon Brewster, Vitali nor Wladimir Klitschko when they won it.

There was a time when there was only one belt.  then two... now there are four, and in my opinion moving up to five (IBA).  This belt was not in high regard in the 80's and 90's, but is now rated among the top journalists in the world and sought by all of the fighters throughtout the weights.

calzaghe has beat few good names i dont think antonio derserves a shot against mayweather hatton ect he needs more big names first
