It means that was the last world title(s) he held e.g. http://boxrec.com/boxer/7035

Ah. thanks for the clarification. Couldn't find it in the help files.

Am however still a bit confused. If it shows the last world title a boxer held, shouldn't Anthony Crolla http://boxrec.com/boxer/371746 also list something like "titles held: WBA World Lightweight" as he also held the title until defeated by Linares?

Sorry, just trying to understand the meaning correctly.

Thanks

By rights it should. I'll bring it to Administrator's attention. I guess same should apply to Barroso. Maybe glitch in the system?

Giving it a bit more thought, maybe we should ditch "title(s) held" out of profile? I fail see necessity and can/does lead to confusion.
Naturally, opinions/recommendations are always welcome.
