The former WBA welterweight champion, Eimantas Stanionis, returned to the ring after being defeated by Jaron “Boots” Ennis, and achieved a wide unanimous decision over Jabulani Makhense. The fight went 10 rounds at a catchweight of 150 pounds at the Zalgiris Arena in Kaunas, Lithuania. Stanionis dominated the fight in his return home, with scores of 100-90, 99-91, and 99-91. The Lithuanian has been inactive in recent years, this being his fourth fight since 2022. Stanionis is likely to seek to win a world title in a new weight category, but his victory at a catchweight is not enough to rank him in the super welterweight division. Following Stanionis’s move up from welterweight, he has been removed from the 147-pound rankings. Souleymane Cissokho enters the rankings at number 10. Boxing rankings by division highlight the best in the sport in each weight category. Rankings will change based on recent results and performances. Boxers who have announced they are moving to a different weight category will be ranked in that new division, if applicable, only once they fight in that weight category. Boxers currently holding titles in two divisions may be ranked in both. Boxers who have not competed in the last 12 months, and who do not have a scheduled fight, will be removed from the rankings until they fight again. Any boxer who tests positive for a performance-enhancing substance will also be removed. That boxer may re-enter the rankings after their next fight.
