The Ring Magazine Releases Latest Pound-for-Pound Rankings
The latest pound-for-pound rankings from The Ring Magazine have been released, and there have been some significant changes at the top. In the latest update, Jesse ‘Bam’ Rodriguez has made a huge leap, moving up to fifth place in the rankings.
Rodriguez, a 24-year-old American boxer of Mexican descent, has been on a hot streak lately. He recently became the first boxer to knock out Juan Francisco ‘El Gallo’ Estrada, a true legend in the sport. This impressive victory has helped to solidify his position in the pound-for-pound rankings.
The young boxer has already achieved a lot in his career, having unified two flyweight titles and becoming a champion in two divisions at the same time. His showy and effective style in all aspects of the ring has earned him a reputation as one of the rising stars in boxing.
The top spot in the pound-for-pound rankings remains unchanged, with Oleksandr Usyk still holding the number one position. Positions two to four also remain the same, with Terence Crawford, Vasiliy Lomachenko, and Naoya Inoue holding onto their spots.
One fight that could have an impact on the rankings is the upcoming bout between Terence Crawford and Israil Madrimov. Although this fight is still highly anticipated, it is unlikely to elevate Crawford to the top of the rankings.
Another highly anticipated fight is the showdown between Artur Beterbiev and Ilunga Makabu. This fight could produce a clear top three in the pound-for-pound rankings, but it has been postponed until October 12.
The Ring Magazine’s pound-for-pound rankings are widely regarded as the most authoritative and respected in the sport. They take into account a boxer’s performance, skill level, and achievements in the ring.
