IBF and WBO publish rankings. Seven Poles in the WBO standings

The IBF was the first of the four major organizations in professional boxing to publish its updated rankings. As was the case a month ago, Polish boxing is represented by just two fighters. In the cruiserweight division, Mateusz Masternak (36-4, 26 KOs) retained 15th place, which theoretically still gives him contender status. In the light heavyweight division, Andrzej Fonfara (28-3, 16 KOs) dropped from fourth to fifth.

The situation for Polish fighters looks considerably better in the February WBO rankings. Seven names appear on the list. In the heavyweight division, Artur Szpilka (20-2, 15 KOs), following his unsuccessful attempt to win the WBC title and his stoppage loss to Deontay Wilder, dropped from 12th to 14th place. Just ahead of him, in 13th, is Izuagbe Ugonoha (15-0, 12 KOs).

In the cruiserweight division, whose champion is Krzysztof Głowacki (25-0, 16 KOs), Mateusz Masternak retained 15th place. Andrzej Fonfara made a significant move up. In the light heavyweight division, he climbed from fifth to second.

Maciej Sulęcki (22-0, 7 KOs) also moved up one spot. Following his victory over Derrick Findley, he climbed to 10th place in the middleweight division. In the junior middleweight division, Patryk Szymański (15-0, 9 KOs) moved up two places, from 15th to 13th. Rounding out the list of Polish fighters is Kamil Łaszczyk (21-0, 8 KOs), who retained fourth place in the featherweight division.
