Box.Live Power Rankings – Super Bantamweight

Updated: 26 Aug, 2026

Box.Live's Power Rankings provide a simple method for ranking active fighters 1st through 34th in the super bantamweight division.

Outside the top 10 or so fighters, who are more likely to be ranked for their current ability and standing at super 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 super 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: m = mandatory challenger.
