Hey up.
What fighters can you name (if any) who have one more than 1 lonsdale belt outright at more than one weight?
I know that Our 'Enry won 3 or so at heavyweight, and possibly Del Bryan got 2 at Welter, but how about multiple weight holders?
Ta.
Ps Good luck for tonight Brodie.

Interesting question, wish I had the answer to be honest.
Nel Tarleton won 2 but not at different weights.

According to boxrec, Ted Kid Lewis won lonsdale belts outright for both the Welterweight (2 defences) and Middleweight divisions (3 defences). He also won lonsdale belts for Featherweight and Light Heavyweight but didn't defend these belts. Well, this assumes that back in the 1910s three successful title fights at one weight wins the belt outright.
Anyone no any more?

Didn't Chartchai Chionoi get a Lonsdale belt when he beat McGowan? I thought I saw one in his home....

Herol Graham did win british titles at LMid and Mid but only won a Lonsdale belt at Mid. I don't think he made enough defences at LMid.
I don't know why i'm so bothered about multiple belt holders...just interested that's all.
