My Triple Champion List is the following:
Barry thanks!
Thanks so much for your 2 lists!
First, you also put Manny Pacquiao in the list despite he has 2 ‘mayor’ belts and one ‘Ring Magazine’ belt. I think that his triumph over Barrera for the Ring Championship equals a ‘mayor’ belt. I believe that Pacquiao is okay to be considered a triple champion.
Second, you included Emile Griffith also, like I did too. He didn’t win a ‘mayor 154 title on 10-17-1962, but he fought Teddy (Farmer) Wright for the “World Jr. Middleweight Title Recognized by the Austrian Boxing Board of Control (ABBC)” in Austria. For that time there were not the current ‘Mayor’ entities, so several associations like the NYSAC, old NBA, the Mexico-California group, the old IBU (Europe) and others recognized champions with “WORLD” status, and that was valid, and by consequence is valid now.
I saw that you put only those that have won mayor titles with the old WBC, WBA, new IBF (1984) and new WBO (1988). I, also, have names of those who have had win belts with others ‘Minor’ organizations. I believe that in 30 years the World will recognize all them together and some of them will change or switch order of who won first, second, third, etc the 4, 5 and 6 different belts in different weights divisions, not now.
So, that is the reason I have 2 different lists. I said I didn’t have it because I wanted to compare with all you, and talk about my doubts.

Thanks Barry for your list, again.
There are all them, I did my job to include all the entities. All the information was taken from the boxer profiles.
This is my second post about the same in different forums.
What's are your toughts?
Thanks so much for your 2 lists!
First, you also put Manny Pacquiao in the list despite he has 2 ‘mayor’ belts and one ‘Ring Magazine’ belt. I think that his triumph over Barrera for the Ring Championship equals a ‘mayor’ belt. I believe that Pacquiao is okay to be considered a triple champion.
Second, you included Emile Griffith also, like I did too. He didn’t win a ‘mayor 154 title on 10-17-1962, but he fought Teddy (Farmer) Wright for the “World Jr. Middleweight Title Recognized by the Austrian Boxing Board of Control (ABBC)” in Austria. For that time there were not the current ‘Mayor’ entities, so several associations like the NYSAC, old NBA, the Mexico-California group, the old IBU (Europe) and others recognized champions with “WORLD” status, and that was valid, and by consequence is valid now.
I saw that you put only those that have won mayor titles with the old WBC, WBA, new IBF (1984) and new WBO (1988). I, also, have names of those who have had win belts with others ‘Minor’ organizations. I believe that in 30 years the World will recognize all them together and some of them will change or switch order of who won first, second, third, etc the 4, 5 and 6 different belts in different weights divisions, not now.
So, that is the reason I have 2 different lists. I said I didn’t have it because I wanted to compare with all you, and talk about my doubts.

re
I just chose fighters that won the actual world title, or a WBC, IBF, WBA or WBO title. Manny Pacquiao won three of those...the WBC Flyweight, IBF Jr. Featherweight and World Featherweight Titles. The Featherweight tile he took from Barrera who took it from Hamed, who had unified all the belts prior to facing Barrera, so that's the legit lineage...the other feather champs are only paper champs, which has become very rampant during the last several years, so it's really getting difficult to keep a tab on the fighters that actually won a title that wasn't given to them.

re
Personally, I think that becoming a three-time champion has been cheapened since the organizations continuously strip title holders on a regular basis. Usually, I wouldn't even list a WBO holder and I'm currently debating whether, or not I even want to add any more fighters to that prestigous group because of how much easier it is for a belt holder to win in three divisions. I mean, could you imagine a fighter today winning titles in three of the orginal eight divisions? Roy Jones was the last to do so winning belts at 160, 175 and hvywt, but none of those titles were lineal championships, such as the three that Henry Armstrong held at the same time.
