==Notes==
*Gassiev started boxing when he was 15.
*Gassiev defeated the [[WBA]] (Super) and [[IBF]] World cruiserweight champion [[Denis Lebedev]] but was unable to win the [[WBA]] title, due to Lebedev's handlers submitting a request to the [[WBA]] to recognise the fight with Gassiev as a "non-title" encounter. The [[WBA]] had no issue with approving their application, because Gassiev was not a mandatory challenger to the [[WBA]] title.
*Gassiev entered the [[World Boxing Super Series]] cruiserweight tournament on the 2nd July, 2017. [https://fightnetwork.com/news/6607684:murat-gassiev-mairis-briedis-krzysztof-wlodarczyk-enter-world-boxing-super-series/]
*Gassiev defeated [[Kubrat Pulev]] on December 12, 2025, to win the [[WBA]] Regular heavyweight title.
*July 1 2026 Gassiev was upgraded to full [[WBA]] Heavyweight champion after [[Oleksandr Usyk]] relinquished all his heavyweight titles, including the [[WBA]] title.
*Gassiev became only the fourth boxer in history to capture major world championships at both cruiserweight and heavyweight, joining [[Evander Holyfield]], [[David Haye]], and [[Oleksandr Usyk]].

The '''International Boxing Federation''' was created in 1983.
President: [[Daryl J. Peoples]]

[http://www.ibf-usba-boxing.com/ IBF/USBA Official Website]

 
 

The United States Boxing Association (USBA) was created in 1977. In October of 1982, USBA president [[Bob Lee]] ran for the presidency of the [[WBA]] at their annual convention but lost to [[Gilberto Mendoza Sr.]]. In April of 1983, the members of the USBA voted to expand the organization and create an international division. The new organization was called the International Boxing Federation, and Bob Lee was named the president.

The IBF awarded their heavyweight title to Larry Holmes, who was viewed as the true [[World Heavyweight Champion]]. Holmes had recently vacated the [[WBC]] title after a dispute with the organization. The fact that the only sanctioning body belt Holmes had at the time was the IBF's greatly helped the new organization's credibility. He held the title from 1983 to 1985 and made three successful defenses.

The IBF is one of four major sanctioning bodies recognized by the [[International Boxing Hall of Fame]], along with the [[WBA]], [[WBC]], and WBO.

In August of 2000, IBF president Bob Lee was acquitted of charges that he took bribes from promoters and managers to manipulate boxers' rankings, but he was found guilty of tax evasion, money laundering and interstate travel in aid of racketeering. He was sentenced to 22 months in prison and fined $25,000.

==Notes==
*Gassiev started boxing when he was 15.
*Gassiev defeated the [[WBA]] (Super) and [[IBF]] World cruiserweight champion [[Denis Lebedev]] but was unable to win the [[WBA]] title, due to Lebedev's handlers submitting a request to the [[WBA]] to recognise the fight with Gassiev as a "non-title" encounter. The [[WBA]] had no issue with approving their application, because Gassiev was not a mandatory challenger to the [[WBA]] title.
*Gassiev entered the [[World Boxing Super Series]] cruiserweight tournament on the 2nd July, 2017. [https://fightnetwork.com/news/6607684:murat-gassiev-mairis-briedis-krzysztof-wlodarczyk-enter-world-boxing-super-series/]

==Notes==
*Gassiev started boxing when he was 15.
*Gassiev defeated the [[WBA]] (Super) and [[IBF]] World cruiserweight champion [[Denis Lebedev]] but was unable to win the [[WBA]] title, due to Lebedev's handlers submitting a request to the [[WBA]] to recognise the fight with Gassiev as a "non-title" encounter. The [[WBA]] had no issue with approving their application, because Gassiev was not a mandatory challenger to the [[WBA]] title.
*Gassiev entered the [[World Boxing Super Series]] cruiserweight tournament on the 2nd July, 2017. [https://fightnetwork.com/news/6607684:murat-gassiev-mairis-briedis-krzysztof-wlodarczyk-enter-world-boxing-super-series/]

World Boxing Council

2026-08-11T22:37:34Z

Brian300: /* World Title */

[[file:Wbclogo.jpg|thumb|WBC Logo|right]]
[[File:WBC belt.jpg|thumb|WBC Championship Belt|right]]

* The '''World Boxing Council''' (WBC) was formed in 1963 and is based in Mexico.
* President: [[Mauricio Sulaiman]]

==History==
The World Boxing Council was initially established by 11 countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, France, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Puerto Rico, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Venezuela. They met in Mexico City on February 14, 1963, upon the invitation of the President of Mexico, Adolfo López Mateos, to form an international boxing organization that would achieve the unity of all commissions of the world to control the expansion of boxing.

The WBC was bankrolled mainly by [[George Parnassus]], a California promoter. Parnassus, who loaded his shows with Mexican and Mexican-American fighters of the lighter weight divisions, was tired of seeing his star attractions ignored by the pro-U.S. rating systems.

The groups that historically had recognized boxers as champions included the [[New York State Athletic Commission]], the [[National Boxing Association]], the [[European Boxing Union]] and the [[British Boxing Board of Control]], but these groups, for the most part, lacked the all-encompassing "international" status they boasted of.

The WBC is one of four major sanctioning bodies recognized by the [[International Boxing Hall of Fame]], along with the [[WBA]], [[IBF]] and [[WBO]].

==The Near Demise of the WBC==
In early 1998, [[Roy Jones Jr.]] announced that he was relinquishing his WBC light heavyweight title to fight as a heavyweight. In response, the organization ordered a bout between German contender [[Graciano Rocchigiani]] and former two-division champion [[Michael Nunn]] to fill the vacancy, sanctioning it as a world championship match.

On March 21, 1998, Rocchigiani won the fight and a WBC belt: in the subsequent WBC rankings, he was listed as "Light Heavyweight World Champion." Jones, however, had a change of heart and asked if the WBC would reinstate him as the champion. In a move that violated nearly a dozen of its own regulations, the WBC granted the reinstatement. Rocchigiani received a letter from the WBC advising that the publishing of his name as champion was a typographical error, and he had never really been the official titleholder.

Rocchigiani immediately filed a lawsuit against the WBC in a U.S. federal court, claiming that the organization's actions both were contrary to their own rules and injurious to his earning potential (due to diminished professional stature). On May 7, 2003, the judge ruled in Rocchigiani's favor, awarding him $30 million (U.S.) in damages and reinstating him as a former WBC champion (Rocchigiani had lost a bout since his WBC title match).

The following day, the WBC sought protection by filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy (i.e., corporate debt restructuring) in Puerto Rico. The organization then spent the next 13 months attempting to negotiate a six-figure settlement with Rocchigiani, but Rocchigiani did not at first accept.

On June 11, 2004, the WBC announced it would enter Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation (i.e., business closing and total asset sell-off) proceedings, effectively ending its existence. This action prompted some in the boxing community to plead with Rocchigiani to settle the dispute, which he did in July 2004. Both sides agreed not to reveal terms of the settlement.

==Diamond Title==

Created in 2009, the Diamond championship belt is an honorary championship destined to reward the winner of a historic fight between two high-profile and elite boxers. It was first awarded in November 2009 to [[Manny Pacquiao]], who won his sixth world title (in five different divisions) via a twelfth-round technical knockout over [[Miguel Cotto]] in Las Vegas. The title can be defended, but it is not a mandatory requirement. The title can also be vacated due to a fighter’s long-term absence or retirement from boxing.

==Silver Title==

Created in 2010, the Silver championship belt was established as an alternative to Interim championship belts. However, the holder of the Silver belt does not get elevated to full recognition as World champion when that title becomes vacant.

The '''International Boxing Federation''' was created in 1983.
President: [[Daryl J. Peoples]]

[http://www.ibf-usba-boxing.com/ IBF/USBA Official Website]

 
 

The United States Boxing Association (USBA) was created in 1977. In October of 1982, USBA president [[Bob Lee]] ran for the presidency of the [[WBA]] at their annual convention but lost to [[Gilberto Mendoza Sr.]]. In April of 1983, the members of the USBA voted to expand the organization and create an international division. The new organization was called the International Boxing Federation, and Bob Lee was named the president.

The IBF awarded their heavyweight title to Larry Holmes, who was viewed as the true [[World Heavyweight Champion]]. Holmes had recently vacated the [[WBC]] title after a dispute with the organization. The fact that the only sanctioning body belt Holmes had at the time was the IBF's greatly helped the new organization's credibility. He held the title from 1983 to 1985 and made three successful defenses.

The IBF is one of four major sanctioning bodies recognized by the [[International Boxing Hall of Fame]], along with the [[WBA]], [[WBC]], and WBO.

In August of 2000, IBF president Bob Lee was acquitted of charges that he took bribes from promoters and managers to manipulate boxers' rankings, but he was found guilty of tax evasion, money laundering and interstate travel in aid of racketeering. He was sentenced to 22 months in prison and fined $25,000.

*The '''World Boxing Organization''' (WBO) was established in 1988.
*'''Trivia:''' The WBO twice moved [[Darrin Morris]] up in its super middleweight rankings, despite the fact that the fighter was dead. Morris, who died from HIV-related meningitis in October 2000, was #7 at the time of his death and #5 when the error was discovered. [http://assets.espn.go.com/boxing/columns/graham/1097210.html]

International Boxing Federation

The '''International Boxing Federation''' was created in 1983.
President: [[Daryl J. Peoples]]

[http://www.ibf-usba-boxing.com/ IBF/USBA Official Website]

 
 

The United States Boxing Association (USBA) was created in 1977. In October of 1982, USBA president [[Bob Lee]] ran for the presidency of the [[WBA]] at their annual convention but lost to [[Gilberto Mendoza Sr.]]. In April of 1983, the members of the USBA voted to expand the organization and create an international division. The new organization was called the International Boxing Federation, and Bob Lee was named the president.

The IBF awarded their heavyweight title to Larry Holmes, who was viewed as the true [[World Heavyweight Champion]]. Holmes had recently vacated the [[WBC]] title after a dispute with the organization. The fact that the only sanctioning body belt Holmes had at the time was the IBF's greatly helped the new organization's credibility. He held the title from 1983 to 1985 and made three successful defenses.

The IBF is one of four major sanctioning bodies recognized by the [[International Boxing Hall of Fame]], along with the [[WBA]], [[WBC]], and WBO.

In August of 2000, IBF president Bob Lee was acquitted of charges that he took bribes from promoters and managers to manipulate boxers' rankings, but he was found guilty of tax evasion, money laundering and interstate travel in aid of racketeering. He was sentenced to 22 months in prison and fined $25,000.

World Boxing Council

2026-08-11T22:18:30Z

Brian300: /* World Title */

[[file:Wbclogo.jpg|thumb|WBC Logo|right]]
[[File:WBC belt.jpg|thumb|WBC Championship Belt|right]]

* The '''World Boxing Council''' (WBC) was formed in 1963 and is based in Mexico.
* President: [[Mauricio Sulaiman]]

==History==
The World Boxing Council was initially established by 11 countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, France, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Puerto Rico, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Venezuela. They met in Mexico City on February 14, 1963, upon the invitation of the President of Mexico, Adolfo López Mateos, to form an international boxing organization that would achieve the unity of all commissions of the world to control the expansion of boxing.

The WBC was bankrolled mainly by [[George Parnassus]], a California promoter. Parnassus, who loaded his shows with Mexican and Mexican-American fighters of the lighter weight divisions, was tired of seeing his star attractions ignored by the pro-U.S. rating systems.

The groups that historically had recognized boxers as champions included the [[New York State Athletic Commission]], the [[National Boxing Association]], the [[European Boxing Union]] and the [[British Boxing Board of Control]], but these groups, for the most part, lacked the all-encompassing "international" status they boasted of.

The WBC is one of four major sanctioning bodies recognized by the [[International Boxing Hall of Fame]], along with the [[WBA]], [[IBF]] and [[WBO]].

==The Near Demise of the WBC==
In early 1998, [[Roy Jones Jr.]] announced that he was relinquishing his WBC light heavyweight title to fight as a heavyweight. In response, the organization ordered a bout between German contender [[Graciano Rocchigiani]] and former two-division champion [[Michael Nunn]] to fill the vacancy, sanctioning it as a world championship match.

On March 21, 1998, Rocchigiani won the fight and a WBC belt: in the subsequent WBC rankings, he was listed as "Light Heavyweight World Champion." Jones, however, had a change of heart and asked if the WBC would reinstate him as the champion. In a move that violated nearly a dozen of its own regulations, the WBC granted the reinstatement. Rocchigiani received a letter from the WBC advising that the publishing of his name as champion was a typographical error, and he had never really been the official titleholder.

Rocchigiani immediately filed a lawsuit against the WBC in a U.S. federal court, claiming that the organization's actions both were contrary to their own rules and injurious to his earning potential (due to diminished professional stature). On May 7, 2003, the judge ruled in Rocchigiani's favor, awarding him $30 million (U.S.) in damages and reinstating him as a former WBC champion (Rocchigiani had lost a bout since his WBC title match).

The following day, the WBC sought protection by filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy (i.e., corporate debt restructuring) in Puerto Rico. The organization then spent the next 13 months attempting to negotiate a six-figure settlement with Rocchigiani, but Rocchigiani did not at first accept.

On June 11, 2004, the WBC announced it would enter Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation (i.e., business closing and total asset sell-off) proceedings, effectively ending its existence. This action prompted some in the boxing community to plead with Rocchigiani to settle the dispute, which he did in July 2004. Both sides agreed not to reveal terms of the settlement.

==Diamond Title==

Created in 2009, the Diamond championship belt is an honorary championship destined to reward the winner of a historic fight between two high-profile and elite boxers. It was first awarded in November 2009 to [[Manny Pacquiao]], who won his sixth world title (in five different divisions) via a twelfth-round technical knockout over [[Miguel Cotto]] in Las Vegas. The title can be defended, but it is not a mandatory requirement. The title can also be vacated due to a fighter’s long-term absence or retirement from boxing.

==Super Championship==
In 2001, the WBA created a new title: Super Champion. Their website states:
:The SUPER WORLD CHAMPION CATEGORY OR UNDISPUTED WORLD CHAMPION was created for those World Champions who hold the title of two or more organizations recognized by the WBA, like the World Boxing Council (WBC), the International Boxing Federation (IBF) and the World Boxing Organization (WBO).

However, the WBA also gives Super Champion status to fighters who aren't unified champions. Featherweight champion [[Chris John]] was named Super Champion even though he wasn't a unified champion. The WBA said it was an award for making ten successful title defenses. Welterweight champion [[Antonio Margarito]] was also named Super Champion even though he was not a unified champion and had not made a single title defense.

When a fighter is elevated to Super Champion, the regular title becomes vacant. Critics claim that the WBA created the Super Champion title just so they can collect more sanctioning fees. [http://www.boxingscene.com/wba-continues-hurt-boxing-makes-john-super-champ--19141]

==Super Championship==
In 2001, the WBA created a new title: Super Champion. Their website states:
:The SUPER WORLD CHAMPION CATEGORY OR UNDISPUTED WORLD CHAMPION was created for those World Champions who hold the title of two or more organizations recognized by the WBA, like the World Boxing Council (WBC), the International Boxing Federation (IBF) and the World Boxing Organization (WBO).

However, the WBA also gives Super Champion status to fighters who aren't unified champions. Featherweight champion [[Chris John]] was named Super Champion even though he wasn't a unified champion. The WBA said it was an award for making ten successful title defenses. Welterweight champion [[Antonio Margarito]] was also named Super Champion even though he was not a unified champion and had not made a single title defense.

When a fighter is elevated to Super Champion, the regular title becomes vacant. Critics claim that the WBA created the Super Champion title just so they can collect more sanctioning fees. [http://www.boxingscene.com/wba-continues-hurt-boxing-makes-john-super-champ--19141]
