Boxing world champions: List of EVERY world titleholder, including Tyson Fury, Canelo Alvarez and Oleksandr Usyk


BOXING can often be a confusing sport for new fans to follow when there are dozens of world title belts to keep track of.

From the different sanctioning bodies, including the WBC, WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO, to the Ring Magazine and Lineal titles – the sport’s leading figures can often be found making head-scratching decisions.

Perhaps a day looms in the not too distant future where each division has ONE champion reign supreme. For now, however, that isn’t the case.

So SunSport have put together a comprehensive list of ALL of boxing’s current world titleholders. Strap yourselves in – it’s a long old list.
