Alright we all know "The Big Four" boxing organisations (WBC, WBO, WBA, IBF)

But (in the last 10 years) what month/year/era had the best 4 champion lineup???

***PS. DON'T BE FUNNY AND SAY "LENNOX LEWIS" BECAUSE HE HELD ALL 4, THAT JUST DOESN'T COUNT***

My choice would be DECEMBER 2004:

WBC - Vitali Klistchsko
WBA - John Ruiz
WBO - Lamon Brewster
IBF - Chris Byrd

***NOTE: "Interim titles" DON'T COUNT!!!***

What would be your line-up?

December 1999.

WBC title: Lennox Lewis
WBA title: Lennox Lewis
IBF title: Lennox Lewis
WBO title: Vitali Klitschko

This is not "funny", this is how it is.

If it has to be four differnet beltholders though (for whatever strange reason), the date is 1997-10:

WBC title: Lennox Lewis
WBA title: Evander Holyfield
IBF title: Michael Moorer
WBO title: Herbie Hide

(the last one hurts)
