Box.Live Power Rankings – Welterweight

Box.Live's Power Rankings provide a simple method for ranking active fighters 1st through 40th in the welterweight division.

Outside the top 10 or so fighters, who are more likely to be ranked for their current ability and standing at welterweight, 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 welterweight, 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.

Bud is my dude but how is he ranked #1 when Spence has been a champion in the division longer, has faced better competition in the division and is a 3 belt unified champ in the division?
