If you go on www.wikipedia.org and type "List of WBA world champions", you will see a list of WBA Heavyweight champions there. There Jack Sharkey is listed as the first 2 time champion. His first reign began on 9/26/1929, his second began on 6/21/1932. I had always thought Patterson was the first to regain the belt. Secondly, according to that site, Muhammad Ali's
reign #1 2/25/1964 from Sonny Liston
reign #2 2/06/1967 from Ernie Terrell
reign #3 1/22/1974 from George Foreman
reign #4 9/15/1978 from Leon Spinks.
But again, I always thought Evander Holyfield was to fist to win a version of the title 4 times. I am confused here, someone please explain this to me if you could.
