  1. He has held six (6) different belts, i listed the exact belts he won, who he beat, and the dates in which he won the titles.

    NYSAC World welterweight title - Tommy Bell, 12/20/1946

    NBA World welterweight tilte - Tommy Bell, 12/20/1946

    World welterweight title - Tommy Bell, 12/20/1946

    Pennsylvania State World middleweight title - Robert Villemain, 6/5/1950

    World middleweight title - Jake Lamotta, 2/14/1951

    NBA World middleweight title - Gene Fullmer, 5/1/1957


  2. Here is the order of how he won his world titles:

    12/20/1946- defeats Tommy Bell to win world welterweight title.

    2/14/1951- defeats Jake LaMotta to win world middleweight title.

    9/12/1951- defeats Randy Turpin to regain world middleweight title.

    12/9/1955- defeats Carl Olsen to regain world middleweight title.

    5/1/1957- defeats Gene Fullmer to regain world middleweight title.

    3/25/1958- defeats Carmen Basilio to regain world middleweight title.

    In short, he was the former welterweight champion of the world and the former 5 time middleweight champion of the world.  Between those two weight divisions, he won the world title a total of 6 times- an incredible feat, especially considering that back then, there was only one champ per division.  And he would have won the light heavyweight title from Joey Maxim, but the heat got to him and he couldn't finish the fight.
