ESPN has published the sport’s most current roster of every world champion across the WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO, organized by weight class. The list is a single source for who’s who in boxing right now, updated to reflect the latest title-holder changes. The rundown spans all 17 recognized weight classes, from minimumweight to heavyweight.
Each champion is tagged with their sanctioning body, belt lineage and the date they claimed the title. The data set is sortable by division, sanctioning body or reign length, letting fans filter the field for their next debate or title fight watchlist. Heavyweight remains vacant after the last belt change, while the light heavyweight division shows unified champion Artur Beterbiev (WBC/IBF) defending his dual titles into 2026.
