[edit] Quadruple Champion Club

In boxing a Quadruple champion is a fighter who has won titles or belts in at least four different weight classes or divisions.

The Quadruple Champion Club is the informal term given to the group of fighters who have won four different titles in four totally different categories of weight.

Example: Thomas Hearns won his first belt at 147 pounds, later he captured the 154 crown, he got the 175 belt and he finally won the 160 title.
