Who has the best chance to get a title in 2 weight classes. I would guess most people would say Jones or maybe GSP.
My money would be on Pettis. He has beat the current 155lb Champ and I think he can defeat Aldo. I don't think he will have an issue getting to 145.
On the flip side of that, maybe Aldo. If he beats Pettis and moves up to LW, he has a good chance. Maybe Jones if and when he decides to move up in a few years.
True, Aldo is already halfway there. Didn't mention Anderson BC I think Jones beats him and he wouldn't fight GSP at WW.
Why would most people say Jones or GSP when Pettis is a LW fighting for the FW title?

Because Pettis doesn't have a single belt yet let alone two lol.
AllAmericanBoxing -This is true but imo he will beat Aldo via dec and would be a favourite against Benson. This could all come about in the next 12 months. GSP and silva will never fight and bones still has a few years left at LHW. Aldo just as likely depending on the Pettis fight.OregonChaelClosedDueToBandWagonCrash - Why would most people say Jones or GSP when Pettis is a LW fighting for the FW title?Because Pettis doesn't have a single belt yet let alone two lol.
Pettis is a good pick for a two division champ
Rory Macdonald... yeah kinda a long shot. But middle weight will be open after Anderson is done and inevitably he will win the welterweight belt one day.
Subzero90 -Big tory fan but he would have to beat gsp then silva or wait for either or both to retire...probably not the next 2 div champ

Most likely pettis
Dark horse for me is vitrtor
Prob JJ IMO
No one will ever hold two belts at once.. Zuffa wont allow a current champ to fight for another belt without vacating. They have made that clear as it would tie up the divisions for way too long.
Pettis, Aldo couldnt last with a fight with Bendo
Frankie Emelianenko - Pettis, Aldo couldnt last with a fight with BendoLol yeah ok bro
