IBO Top 15 World Rankings – December 2025
The International Boxing Organization have released their top 15 world rankings for December 2025.
Three of the top four ranked heavyweights are Brits and so too are a third of the light-heavyweight top 15.
Following his comfortable unanimous decision win over Chris Eubank Jr. last month, Conor Benn has jumped up from #12 to the no.1 spot in the middleweight rankings, essentially taking his opponent’s position, who has now fallen to #2.
Remarkably, in the top 15 welterweights, there’s an historic name that is now in his 30th year as a pro!
