Talking about boxingis easy to identify who theTop Dogsare. Canelo Álvarez, Gervonta Davis, Vasyl Lomachenko, Tyson Fury, among others. However, if we include the variable of Champions in the equation, a huge confusion appears.
There are 17 fully recognized divisions (the brand new Bridger category is only considered by the World Boxing Council) by the 4 top boxing organizations. Doing the math, that makes 68 absolute champions. Not including the non-regular world belt holders (lower category champions).
From the tiny Minimumweight to the monstrous Heavyweight; from the destructive power of George Kambosos Jrto the skillful style of Oleksandr Usyk:here you have the list of all current World Champions on boxing.
