Women's Monthly Rankings: November 2023
Boxers are ranked according to ability and accomplishments in their respective weight classes. Fighters may be removed if they have been inactive for over 18 months and still have no fights scheduled.
Lineal Boxing Champion’s long-standing, independent, non-computerised, monthly divisional ratings, began on April 6th, 2019 – at this time, no such ratings existed in women’s professional boxing.
The international panel that produces the ratings, consists of ten boxing analysts, from nine different countries.
Heavyweight
Oxandia Castillo (#4) exits due to inactivity. Bolatito Oluwole, 8-0, who claimed the Kenyan Cruiserweight title on September 24, enters at #5. Razel Mohammed moves to #4.
Junior Middleweight
Cecilia Braekhus enters at #3 following her draw against #1 contender, Terri Harper, on October 7th. Kozin exits, and Spencer and Berghult each move down a place.
Welterweight
Marie Houle is now competing at junior welterweight, so exits the 147lb ratings. Olympic gold medallist, Lauren Price – who has wins over Lolita Muzeya and Kirstie Bavington – enters at ~5, Mikaela Mayer rises to #4.
Featherweight
Nina Meinke defeated Laura Ledezma by 10-round unanimous decision on October 28th, moving her up one spot, to #2. Danilo Ramos – who lost a shut-out to Amanda Serrano on October 27th - drops to #3.
Flyweight
Gabriela Fundora enters at #2 after her stunning 5th round KO of Arely Mucino on October 21st. Kenia Enriquez takes the #1 spot and Mucino falls to #5. Leonela Yudica – who last fought at 105lbs and 108lbs in her previous two bouts - exits the 112lb ratings.
Pound-for-Pound
No changes.
