Hedding, Chairman of the Wisconsin Comission and author of the state boxing law, ruled that Mitchell did not lose his title to Red Herring. Herring agreed only to weigh 145 lbs for his fight with Mitchell, and none of the other requisites for a title fight were in place."
5 James Red Herring vs. Mushy Callahan on August 18, 1925: "Ring Oct 1925 reports this as a non-title fight."
6 Pinky Mitchell vs. Russie LeRoy on January 14, 1926: "... Note: LeRoy trained to come in under 140 pounds so that if he knocked Mitchell out he could claim Junior Welterweight Championship. Mitchell didn't care what his own weight was. ..."

8 Jackie (Kid) Berg vs. Sammy Fuller on May 20, 1932: "Claimed World Junior-Welterweight Title"
Possible further claims:
- According to the light welterweight world champions page on Hickoksports.com, "Several fighters claimed the title, but there were no championship matches."
Sammy Fuller won a possible world flyweight title fight (see above) but has not been included in the world light welterweight champions category.
