List of current world boxing champions[edit]

Well-referenced, no red links. -ArcTheLad 22:35, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Constantly updated, it is a very good reference for boxing champions. It has several references on the page, even the history portion is extra useful to view past champions. Maya Levy 02:10, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Quite impressive indeed. You may want to use class="wikitable" to make the tables look even nicer. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 13:04, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support even though I oppose boxing... ;) Renata 00:18, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Great list, but I'm very unfamiliar with this subject. Could you explain what are the numbers under each name? Thank you. CG 13:30, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • The numbers are their professional boxing records. The format is Wins-Losses-Draws-No contests (Knockout wins). The reference for all of the records is boxrec.com. ArcTheLad 16:42, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Could you add this to the list? CG 19:24, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • I have added a sentence to the first paragraph. ArcTheLad 01:57, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
          • Thanks. Now I can support. CG 08:55, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I went looking for an article about professional boxing organizations, but we don't seem to have one. In its absence (unless you want to write one and link it from this list), could there be a sentence or two in the intro explaining why those four organizations are the main ones? Just in case anyone wonders why, for example, the International Boxing Organization champions aren't listed. --OpenToppedBus - Talk to the driver 14:37, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
