Women's Boxing Champions Across All Major Titles

The current landscape of women's boxing sees champions crowned across four major sanctioning bodies in divisions ranging from strawweight to heavyweight.

The WBC, WBA, IBF, and WBO each maintain title lineages in the sport's established weight classes, with several fighters holding multiple straps simultaneously. According to ESPN's updated records, champions are recognised in strawweight, light flyweight, flyweight, super flyweight, bantamweight, super bantamweight, featherweight, super featherweight, lightweight, super lightweight, welterweight, super welterweight, middleweight, super middleweight, light heavyweight, and heavyweight divisions.

Undisputed and Multi-Belt Champions Lead Women's Boxing

Certain weight classes feature undisputed champions who have unified all four major titles, while others remain fractured with different fighters holding individual belts. The fragmentation means some divisions have as many as four separate champions recognised by different organisations.

The sanctioning bodies update their championship rolls as titles change hands through scheduled bouts and occasional vacancies due to retirements or divisions shifts. Claressa Shields remains one of the most decorated active champions, having held belts across multiple weight classes during her professional career.

Current titleholders can be found through the official rankings maintained by each sanctioning body, with the four major organisations — WBC, WBA, IBF, and WBO — generally recognised as the sport's premier championship authorities in women's boxing.
