We are an independent sanctioning body. We do not have any controlling business agreements with any other sanctioning organization.

​

The record shows that we've been – and continue to be independent, respected & successful. That's why mega world champions like Lennox Lewis, Wladimir Klitschko, Roy Jones Jr, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, Gennadiy Golovkin, Anthony Joshua, Oleksandr Usyk, and so many others have recognized the IBO and been proud to wear our belt. The IBO’s computerized rankings remain the most objective rankings in the sport.
