OUR MISSION

The Transnational Boxing Rankings Board was formed in October 2012 as a volunteer initiative to provide boxing with authoritative top-ten rankings, identify the singular world champion of every division by strict reasoning and common sense, and to insist on the sport’s reform. Board membership includes fifty respected boxing journalists and record keepers from around the world who are uncompromised by so-called sanctioning bodies and promoters.

LATEST UPDATE

23 March 2026

Super Middleweight Lester Martinez defeats Aleem Emanuel and moves up from #7 to #3, right behind Christian Mbilli, whom he fought to a draw last September. At Middleweight, Austin Williams, #7, loses to #1-ranked Carlos Adames and is voted out of the rankings. Jesus Ramos, who was inactive as a Jr. Middleweight (where he was ranked #7 and where Pavel Sosulin enters in at #10), is now the #10 contender.

 

Riku Masuda was rocked in the sixth round, but stopped former champion and contender Nonito Donaire in eight . He moves up from #6 to #4 at Bantamweight. Jr. Flyweight Shokichi Iwata, using precision and pressure, moves up from #6 to #3 after taking a unanimous technical decision in the eighth round after Knockout CP Freshmart suffered an accidental headbutt in the fourth.
