Sextuple Champion Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Sextuple Champion Club

Belong in the Sextuple Champion Club is the most extraordinary feat that a multiple titleholder can achieve in Boxing by winning different titles in different weight divisions.

Only two fighters have surpassed the barrier of three, four and five divisions championships. They are Oscar De La Hoya and Thomas Hearns.

In the beginning of the twenty one Century more and more fighters have achieved this feat requiring less effort because two reasons:

  1. - the numerous weight categories (Mayor entities: 17 divisions in total + Minor entities: 19 in some circumstances) .
  2. - and the growing amount of professional boxing entities that claim a "World" status for its championships around the planet.
