Box.Live Power Rankings – Bantamweight

Box.Live's Power Rankings provide a simple method for ranking active fighters 1st through 33rd in the bantamweight division.

Outside the top 10 or so fighters, who are more likely to be ranked for their current ability and standing at bantamweight, others are considered by their potential future influence as mandatory or eliminator contenders. Every fighter is either a champion or ranked by at least one organisation at bantamweight, so inactive fighters may not appear until they fight again.

Order: Ring champion, Ring positions 1–10, then other world champions, then by combined ranking points (WBC/IBF/WBO/WBA).

Key: (c) = champion, (int) = interim, (reg) = WBA regular when multiple champions, [m] = mandatory.
