Transnational Boxing Rankings Board's Rankings As of October 18
The Transnational Boxing Rankings Board's latest rankings- those based on fights held through October 15, 2016- were posted on the TBRB's website October 18, 2016.


From tbrb.org:

"Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury has officially abdicated the heavyweight throne.

"I won the titles in the ring and I believe that they should be lost in the ring," he said in a statement Friday, "but I'm unable to defend at this time and I have taken the hard and emotional decision to now officially vacate....."

"Given his suspension by the British Boxing Board of Control, he is ineligible to enter the top-ten until he earns his way back in after the determined length of the suspension, as per the charter. We wish him the best, look forward to encouraging reports regarding his recovery, and expect that his eventual comeback will be the stuff of real drama."
