Several ranked fighters were victorious last week, but only a couple of changes took place in the world rankings:
Ricky Burns assumes the #1 spot in the lightweight division, moving up from #3, partly due to his win over Kevin Mitchell and partly due to Brandon Rios’ exit from the division.
Carl Frampton debuts in the junior featherweight top ten at #5 after his win over former #9 ranked Steve Molitor. Molitor, with his defeat, falls from the Top 10.
Sharif Bogere debuts in the #10 spot at lightweight due to the space made from Brandon Rios’ exit.
Hekkie Budler moves up to #9 from #10 in the strawweight division after his win over Florante Condes.
