  • I am unbiased against the minor boxing entities but I recognize that only are 4 major entities that regulate boxing at world level. One day all the champions may be recognized by title and date it was won. Right now boxing have not an international organism that govern the boxing despite the Tennis, the Basketball, the Baseball and other major sports does. I am open to any critic or opinion at any time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Io Wiki2007 (talkcontribs) 20:33, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
  • I added this link to all the Puerto Rico boxing champs.
  • I collected all the champions from all the major and minor boxing associations. I used the same parameters that the Puerto Rico Boxing Commission uses to classify all Puertorican boxer that fight and win any professional championship belt.
  • Any help to build this page will be appreciated. I am open to any opinion.

Hector Camacho

The list of champions is awesome, super, something well done. Thanks to the contributors. They are excellent writers. =) Just to say that for Hector Camacho, Sr he also won the NBA Super Middleweight Title from Roberto Duran, 2001-07-14 at the Pepsi Center, Denver, Colorado, United States , so the title should be in the list too. Source: http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=607&cat=boxer I do not want to edit it because that already is a jewel from the contributors. =) Thanks you —Preceding unsigned comment added by Io Wiki2007 (talkcontribs) 23:17, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Another line should be added to incorporate what organisation awarded the title.--Vintagekits (talk) 15:21, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

I tried, but Camacho is making it virtually impossible since we are already using 99% of the width. - Caribbean~H.Q. 20:52, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
Can you use the Titles section and have the sanctioning body in brackets after it, e.g. Bantamweight (WBC, IBF, IBA), Super Bantamweight (IBF, WBO, WBO) etc.--Vintagekits (talk) 21:19, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

It is still too wide:

Number Name Date Titles Successful Defenses References
15 Héctor Camacho August 7, 1983 Super featherweight (WBC), lightweight (WBC), light welterweight (WBO), welterweight (IBC), middleweight (IBC), super middleweight (NBA) and light middleweight (IBC, WBE) 1, 2, 3, 3, 1, 0 and 0 [XV] [1]

All the cluttering in here, would expand the table in the article (notice how it is actually larger than the talk page, even tough only 99% of the width is used). I believe that the Boxrec links, which are provided for each boxer, should satisfy that curiosity. - Caribbean~H.Q. 02:36, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
