What The Boxing Pound For Pound Rankings Represents To Us
The above represent our current rankings. In a very challenging debate.
An always difficult analysis.
One where everyone will always have their own individual preferences for how this list is made up.
For us, this bone of contention is best surmised with the following formula:
Quality of opposition fought and beat * activity * number of weight classes competed in (pound for pound).
Our formula is a simple one. One that is tried and tested. Over many years in the sport.
We often have received compliments from fans over the years on this list and rankings effort.
It is important to realize however that it is completely subjective.
Everyone has a changing viewpoint on how this ranking unfolds.
Big fights happen all the time. So the list changes. Inevitably.
Rather frequently in fact.

Overall, we believe our boxing pound for pound rankings, the top ten in the world, to be solid.
That said we are always open to other’s interpretation and viewpoints.
In recent years we believe the level of pound for pound ability in the sport has increased.
Hugely no less. Boxing is in a boom time worldwide as a sport. Without question.
Growing quickly too internationally.
So much so that the sport has never seen this level of pugilistic ability in years.
Maybe since the 1980s.
Maybe since the days of Muhammad Ali.
Welcome to the new age of boxing.
