Let me break it down for you just so you understand. -Judah won the undisputed world welterweight title by beating Cory Spinks in 9 rounds. FACT -Judah then defended his titles against a bum Cosme Rivera who he stopped in 3 rounds. FACT -Judah then defended his title against Carlos Baldomir. He only defended his WBC title because Baldomir didn't pay the sanctioning fees for the other belts. Judah went on to lose the fight which meant the other titles he didn't defend became vacant and of course the WBC title went to Baldomir. Baldomir's record at the time was 41-9-6 12KOs. It looks elite right ? Baldomir is a journeymen. FACT -Judah won that title 6 years ago, like a said a long time in boxing. 6 years ago Khan was a prospect fighting the likes of David Bailey and Daniel Thrope. Alot can change in 6 years. FACT -Judah has only got worse the past few years. Take a look at his record, thats all the proof you need. His best win since beating Spinks ? Mazuba or Matthysse, totally elite fighters right ? lol. FACT
OK totally incorrect was a bit harsh.

You don't have to maintain the belts once you've established yourself as THE MAN. Whether a title is stripped through non-payment of sanction fees or simply discarded is irrelevant.

Judah became undisputed champion beating Spinks. Correct. He won it 6 years ago. Correct. He defended against Rivera. Correct. He then lost his crown against Baldomir. Correct.

The rest is just your opinion.

Judah is currently no.6 ranked by The Ring. 5th by Boxing Monthly. He is the IBF champion (for what it's worth). He has only ever lost once at 140 (Kostya). So whether or not you personally believe him to be shit, he can arguably be called a current "elite" lightwelter. That doesn't make him "elite" like Manny Pac "elite," it just makes him one of the better fighters currently in this particular division.
