The unanimous decision victory over Canelo in Las Vegas catapulted Crawford to the top spot at 168 pounds, relegating Canelo to second place.\n\nIn the co-main event, Lester Mart\u00ednez earned a spot in the super middleweight rankings after a split draw against WBC interim champion Christian Mbilli. Although the fight was closely contested and Mart\u00ednez showed great resilience, he had to settle for the draw. Mbilli, despite retaining his interim belt, dropped three places, ranking at number 5.\n\nFrom Japan, Naoya Inoue, another renowned boxer, used his intelligence to dominate Murodjon Akhmadliev and retain his undisputed status in the super featherweight division by unanimous decision. Inoue solidifies his position at the top of the division, while Akhmadliev remains in third place.\n\nIn the bantamweight division, Christian Medina achieved an impressive technical knockout victory in the fourth round against Yoshiki Takei, obtaining the WBO world title. Medina debuted in the ranking at number 3, while Takei suffered his first professional defeat and fell to number 4.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rankings by Division<\/h2>\n\n\nHere are the rankings for the different boxing divisions:\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b>Heavyweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Cruiserweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Light Heavyweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Super Middleweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Middleweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Super Welterweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Welterweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Super Lightweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Lightweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Super Featherweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Featherweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Super Bantamweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Bantamweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Super Flyweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Flyweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Light Flyweight<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Strawweight<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h2>Heavyweight (Unlimited)<\/h2>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fmedia%2Fmotion%2F2025%2F0222%2Fdm_250222_COM_BOX_Analysis_The_numbers_behind_Bivols_rematch_victory_against_Beterbiev_20250222_GLOBAL_T2%2Fdm_250222_COM_BOX_Analysis_The_numbers_behind_Bivols_rematch_victory_against_Beterbiev_20250222_GLOBAL_T2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<b>1.
