World Amateur Rankings

[Your Boxing Club]

Looking at the AIBA and other sites they don't like to keep there rankings up to date, AIBA last updated theirs September 2017 and some of those are now pro boxers!

I have created World Mens and World Womens Rankings at https://yourboxingclub.com there could be some inaccuracies with boxers retiring or turning pro, especially the Asian and South American countries its difficult to know if they have retied as amateurs.

I have used the excellent BoxRec to check any that might have gone Pro, but if any of you boxing fans have some time if you look at the World Pound 4 pound list (Men & Womens) on the site, it lists all boxers i have so far included, if you know of any that might have retired please let me know.

Thanks

Congrats for your work, great initiative.

Some notes:

Arsene Fokou and Bektemir Melikuziev are both suspended for doping.

Robeisy Ramirez and Yoahnys Argilagos have defected from Cuba and are expected to turn pro in the US soon.

Following boxers have turned pro or are about to have their pro debut:
Jason Whateley,
Dieudonne Seyi Ntsengue
Vikas Krishan
Shahobiddin Zoirov
Galal Yafai

Technically they are allowed to continue in the amateurs as well but I guess probably most of them won´t go back.

Thanks for that, i have removed Jason Whateley, and Dieudonne Seyi Ntsengue out of the rankings, i have left the others until they make there debut.

The Rankings have already changed since yesterday as i have added more tournaments and more boxers, more to be added soon. Any chance you get if you could take a look at the list on the site and let me know any others that have retired or turned pro.

That goes for anyone else who reads this, i appreciate any information you have, i need the support of boxing fans to make the lists as accurate as possible, thanks in advance

[Your Boxing Club]

I wrote this today on the site so people understand how the rankings are done

YourBoxingClub World Amateur Boxing Rankings Explained
It can be a little tricky to understand what on Earth is going on when it comes to the rankings. In this post we’re going to try and explain how it works. In the simplest terms, each ranking is a list of the total points earned by boxers at International tournaments over a period of time. The hard and fast rule here is that the more prestigious the tournament, the more ranking points a boxer gets for competing in it.

It’s all about the points
Points are earned by how far boxers advance in the event, from winning either Bronze, Silver or Gold. The better a boxer does at the event, the more points that are rewarded and the bigger the tournament, the more points available. The rankings have six tiers of events, major tournaments like the Olympics are at the top, down to more regional International tournaments in tier six. At a tier one tournament, a winner receives the most points of any tournament and so on down to a tier six Bronze position with the least amount of points.

At the conclusion of every tournament, the previous boxers drop points earned at the same previous tournament and the new winners are awarded with the points won in the just concluded event. The Ranking season is a bit misleading, as the majority of tournaments are yearly events, however this is not the case with Olympic and World Championships which are every 4 years. The second significant difference between the YourBoxingClub rankings and other sport leagues, is that points earned from a particular tournament carry over to the next year.

In fact any points won by a boxer remain theirs until the same time the following tournament, where they must defend them. This is the part that tends to trip people up as Olympic and World Champions hold their points for 4 years, and can stay at or near the top of the rankings for a long time, even though they have lost bouts to lower ranked boxers over the 4 years.

Example
Example: Boxer A is Olympic Champion and currently number 1 in the rankings, Boxer B is ranked number 25 in the same division and they meet at a Tier four tournament. Boxer B beats Boxer A in the Quarterfinals and goes on to win the tournament. Boxer A gets no points as he finishes outside of the points bracket and Boxer B gets the points for the Gold medal position. Boxer A still remains at number 1, as he has more points overall from previous tournaments, but Boxer B moves up to say Number 12 and closes the gap.

If this was to continue over the months, you could see Boxer A start dropping down the rankings, as either he starts losing points as he is inactive or not performing well. Other boxers could over take him by winning more points, but it will take a lot of points from lower tier tournaments to overtake a tier one winner. An unknown boxer can use one event to leapfrog into the top 20 from no where, and World and Olympic Champions can wage battle from different parts of the world to see who stays at number 1, without boxing each other at all.

Conclusion
No one ever said the rankings identify the best boxers, only the boxers who’ve had the best results in tournaments, but the best Boxers do tend to have the best results. Essentially, a boxer can hover around the top 20, as long as he does well in smaller tournaments and remains active. Or they could win big at the Worlds or Olympics and can ride on those points for some time.

Do not try to compare these rankings with pro boxing rankings, they don’t work like that. In the Amateurs you can’t take tittles from boxers by beating them outside of that tournament, they remain World Champions until the next World Championships. And if your still confused the closest thing to these rankings would be Tennis world rankings go and check out how they work, they work in a similar way to this.
