UBO RANKINGS CRITERIA:
In accordance
with the Muhammad Ali Boxing
Reform Act, Sanctioning bodies must publicly
disclose their rankings criteria.
The Universal Boxing Organization™
recognizes the BoxRec Computer Rankings.
BoxRec ranks all active fighters upon their
results and activity. The rankings are
independently calculated and the UBO have no
input into the positions of the boxers.
There is no human opinion involved in the
BoxRec Computer rankings. After every bout,
the ranking of the two boxers involved are
changed depending on the official result of
the bout. Boxers get more points for
defeating opponents with good
results/records, than they would for
defeating opponents of lesser quality, and
will consequently move up or down the
rankings depending on the opponents he or
she defeat, draw with, or lose to.

work.
To box for a UBO World Championship a male
boxer must have a positive win-loss-draw
record of no less than ten bouts and be ranked within the top-300 of
the BoxRec computer rankings. The UBO
reserves the right to reject boxers ranked
outside the top-100 if their recent results
and/or records justify this.
If a boxer holds a UBO regional,
International or Inter-Continental title, or
has otherwise competed at championship
level, he may on a case-by-case basis be
approved even if he has not had ten bouts.
To box for a UBO World Championship a female
boxer must be ranked within the top-25
of
the BoxRec computer rankings. The UBO
reserves the right to reject boxers ranked
outside the top-10 if their recent results
and/or records justify this.
To box for a UBO Inter-Continental title
male boxers must have a positive
win-loss-draw record and be ranked within
the top-400 of the BoxRec computer rankings.
The UBO reserves the right to reject boxers
ranked outside the top-200 if their recent
results and/or records justify this.
To box for a UBO Inter-Continental title
female boxers must be ranked within the
top-35
of the BoxRec computer rankings. The
UBO reserves the right to reject boxers
ranked outside the top-20 if their recent
results and/or records justify this.
To box for a UBO International or regional
title a male boxer must have a positive
win-loss-draw record, or have won his last
fight, or be ranked within the top-500 of
the BoxRec computer rankings. The UBO
reserves the right to reject boxers ranked
outside the top-200 if their recent results
and/or records justify this.
To box for a UBO International or regional
title a female boxer must be ranked within
the top-50 of the BoxRec computer rankings.
The UBO reserves the right to reject boxers
ranked outside the top-25
if their recent
results and/or records justify this.
To box for a UBO Youth title male boxers can
be maximum 25 years old, must have a
positive win-loss-draw record, and must be
ranked within the top-450 of the BoxRec
computer rankings. The UBO reserves the
right to reject boxers ranked outside the
top-100 if their recent results and/or
records justify this.
To box for a UBO Youth title female boxers
can be maximum 25 years old and must be
ranked within the top-40 of the BoxRec
computer rankings. The UBO reserves the
right to reject boxers ranked outside the
top-20 if their recent results and/or
records justify this.
Due to the fact that missing results can
affect a ranking, and since BoxRec doesn’t
receive all results from certain countries,
the UBO may approve or reject a boxer based
on his documented and confirmed record
provided by his licensing boxing federation,
should such record justify a higher ranking.
Since BoxRec does not rank boxers who
haven’t fought in one year, the UBO may, at
its discretion, approve a boxer without a
BoxRec ranking if the boxer’s record
justifies approval.
