When you claimed that a certain boxer holds a lineal title, sane persons would have based it from the history record books... It's insane and senseless to claim boxer so and so is a lineal champ according to your own opinion only... It doesn't work that way and if you pursue it, you would just become a laughing stock in discussion forums since that way everybody can just claim that boxer so and so has 5, 6, 7 lineal titles...

We have record books for that purpose...
When PAC and JMM met the first time, PAC was the 126 lineal champ and JMM the IBF/WBA 126 champ... The fight was scored officially a draw and each boxer kept their titles... PAC moved up to 130 after that and the lineal title was declared vacant up to now... It will only be filled up again if the #1 guy at 126 will fight the #2 or #3 guy for the lineal championship...
It's a fact, JMM was not recognized to hold a lineal title at 126 (featherweight division)...
