The super welterweight division is one of the most underrated weight classes in boxing today. The one thing that keeps them from being mentioned with heavyweight or welterweight divisions is the lack of real main event stars.
You win $2.00 if you match the Mega Ball, $3.00 if you match one number and the Mega ball. For all ways to win, see the Related Question. How many rounds are in a boxing match? Getting Added to an Amateur Boxing Card. Fortunately for you, this is easy. The amateur boxing circuit is a small world, both locally and nationally, and once your coach decides that you are ready, he will be your best resource for attending and competing in events. There are two basic types: the tournament and the local club fight.
But when talking about skills in the ring, the super welterweight deserves to be mentioned as one of the best weight classes in boxing. This is one of the only weight classes where nothing is guaranteed, with many notable upsets taking place over the past couple of years.
These are the top 10 super welterweight boxers in the world today.

*Tim Tszyu record: 17-0, 13 KOs
Most fight fans may not be too familiar with Tim Tszyu (son of International Boxing Hall of Famer Kostya Tszyu) because he has exclusively fought in Australia. However, he has had excellent success in his young career, winning the WBO Global Super Welterweight championship and successfully defending it three times. His most notable win came against former WBO Welterweight champion Jeff Horn. His next fight will come against former super welterweight and middleweight world title contender Dennis Hogan on March 31st.9. Michel Soro
*Michel Soro record: 35-2-1, 24 KOs
Another lesser-known fighter, Michel Soro has fought all but three of his 38 career fights in France. After losing his only career world title match so far in 2012, Soro dusted him off, going 13-0-1 in his next 14 fights on his way to challenging for the WBA Interim Super Welterweight title against Brian Carlos Costano. In that fight, Soro would lose in a spectacular bout that ended in a close split decision. Soro recently became the first-ever WBA Gold Super Welterweight champion, beating Greg Vendetti via 2nd round TKO and successfully defended the belt against Anderson Prestot. His last fight came in November 2019, when he beat Cedric Vitu by 5th round TKO. 8. Erickson Lubin
*Erickson Lubin record: 23-1, 16 KOs
Unfortunately for Erickson Lubin, he took the biggest fight of his career well before he was ready. In October 2017, Lubin was 22 with an 18-0 professional record. Set to face Jermell Charlo for the WBC Super Welterweight title, Lubin was coming off a 4th round TKO win against Jorge Cota and was extremely confident. He ultimately lost via first-round knockout, suffering the first loss of his pro career. Since then, he has recovered well, winning each of his last five fights, including the WBC Silver Super Welterweight title.

*Julian Williams record: 27-2-1, 16 KOs
Each of the next three entries are interchangeable as each fighter went on to win world championships in upset wins only to lose their first title defenses. Julian Williams ranks the lowest of the three because he won in his second world title fight, losing his first world title shot via fifth-round KO to now middleweight Jermall Charlo (not mistaken with twin brother Jermell Charlo who is a super welterweight).
In May 2019, Julian Williams won the unified WBA, IBF and IBO Super Welterweight titles, upsetting previously undefeated Jarrett Hurd by unanimous decision. He would unsuccessfully defend his titles, losing to rising prospect Jeison Rosario. Super welterweight boxing rankings: Best boxers in 20216. Tony Harrison:
*Tony Harrison record: 28-3, 21 KOs
Tony Harrison also became super welterweight champion in his second opportunity losing his first world title fight by 9th round TKO to Jarrett Hurd. He got his second opportunity at a world championship in December 2018 when he fought WBC Super Welterweight champion Jermell Charlo. The fight was very close, but in the end, it was Harrison taking the win by a narrow unanimous decision giving Charlo his first loss as a pro. Charlo would get his revenge in their rematch, winning by 11th round TKO to reclaim his championship. 5. Jeison Rosario:
*Jeison Rosario record: 20-2-1, 14 KOs
Prior to his fight with Julian Williams, Rosario won the biggest fight of his career to that point beating Jorge Cota by split decision. He came in to the Julian Williams fight as a massive underdog added by the fact that the fight was in Williams’ hometown of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. After losing the first round, Rosario began to take control of the fight battering the champion’s face with destructive power shots. The fight was waived off in the 5th round when the punishment left Williams on shaky legs awarding Rosario the unified WBA, IBF, and IBO Super Welterweight titles. Rosario would lose the belts in a unification bout against Jermell Charlo. 4. Brian Carlos Castano:
*Brian Carlos Castano record: 17-0-1, 13 KOs; WBO Super Welterweight Champion
Of the three world champions on this list, Brian Carlos Castano won his belt most recently. Prior to winning the world title, Castano had an impressive resume winning the WBA super welterweight interim and regular world title (not to be confused with the WBA Super world championship). His notable wins include Emmanuel De Jesus, Michel Soro, and Cedric Vitu. He also fought Erislandy Lara to a draw. In his most recent bout on February 13th, Castano won his first official world title beating Patrick Teixeira by unanimous decision to win the WBO Super Welterweight championship.

*Jarrett Hurd record: 24-1, 16 KOs
While Jarrett Hurd is the only fighter in the top three that does not hold a belt currently, he sits in the third spot due to his resume. Hurd won his first world title in February 2017 when he beat Tony Harrison to win the vacant IBF Super Welterweight title. After successfully defending his title against Austin Trout, Hurd would unify the IBF title with the WBA and IBO titles after beating Erislandy Lara by split decision with a 12th round knockdown, helping him edge the decision in his favor. He would lose the belts in May 2019 when he lost to Julian Williams by unanimous decision. His last fight came in January 2020, which he won by unanimous decision. 2. Erislandy Lara
*Erislandy Lara record: 27-3-3, 15 KOs; IBO Super Welterweight Champion
All three of Erislandy Lara’s losses have seen him be the victim of close decisions going against him. Critics panned his first professional loss against Paul Williams in 2011 as they believed he deserved to be awarded the decision win. Elsewhere, Lara has been a decorated champion in the super welterweight division, winning the WBA interim, regular and super world super welterweight titles and the IBO super welterweight title.
In January 2017, Lara became WBA and IBO unified super welterweight champion after knocking out Yuri Foreman. After successfully defending the belt against previously undefeated Terrell Gausha, he lost the belts in a close split decision to Jarrett Hurd. He would regain the WBA regular championship after beating Roman Alvarez and the IBO belt in his most recent bout against Greg Vendetti. 1. Jermell Charlo
*Jermell Charlo record: 34-1, 18 KOs; IBF, WBA and WBC Super Welterweight Champion
No fight has the resume or championship pedigree close to Jermell Charlo in the super welterweight division. He won his first world championship in May 2016 when he beat John Jackson for the WBC Super Welterweight title. He successfully defended the belt three times, including wins against Erickson Lubin and Austin Trout, before losing the belt in a controversial unanimous decision loss to Tony Harrison. He would regain it after beating Tony Harrison in a rematch by 11th round TKO. Charlo would go on to unify the WBC title with the WBA and IBF belts after knocking out Jeison Rosario in the 8th round.
’The best fighters hit the most and get hit the least.’ - Rocky Marciano
There’s an adage in boxing that the best defense is to not get hit. Being a proficient defender is the key part of not getting hit, or at least getting hit less. So, it’s amazing to me that many self-defense and martial arts schools teach primarily one thing - offense.
Hard punches and fancy kicks won’t make you a better defender if your footwork is lousy and your head is always in the same place. Make no mistake – whether you’re in a sporting match or a self-defense situation, in a fight you will get hit.
RELATED: The 4 Paradoxes of Boxing (and Fighting)
Conditioning yourself to get hit, learning how to take a hit, and learning to evade hits will help you come out a victor on the other end. Here are five ways to better your defense as a boxer or martial artist. 1. Spar More
Nothing prepares you for a real fight like a practice one. The challenge comes in knowing when and how to spar. Here’s some advice:
* Don’t spar until you’re ready.
* Make sure you spar at the right gym with the right people.
Start by doing your due diligence in finding the right coach, instructor, and school. Any martial arts school, dojo, or boxing gym should have an aura of respect permeating every corner of the room. If you don’t get the respect vibe, turn and walk away. ’Sparring is about practice. You and your partner are each trying to get better, not prove who can hit harder.’
Once you and your instructor determine you are ready to spar, the most important aspect is control. One of my coaches used the term “volume control” in relation to intensity of sparring. That is, you discuss and agree with your partner the intensity (or volume level) at which you are going to work - before the bell rings.
If your partner is going too hard (or too easy), adjust your volume by telling him or her to turn it up or down. Sparring is about practice. You and your partner are each trying to get better, not prove who can hit harder.
RELATED: 5 Tips for Successful Sparring in Martial Arts
Also, spar with people of different shapes, sizes, and abilities. Each opponent provides a specific and unique challenge. It’s a lot different to spar with a lanky fighter versus a lumbering one. Vary your partners and you will learn to apply different techniques in different situations. 2. Fast Feet Equals Getting Hit Less
It’s probably not news to you that running or skipping rope can make your feet faster. The challenge with jumping rope (or running) is that many do it the same way every time. But fights move at different speeds and tempos throughout. You slow your rhythm when you need to conserve energy, but switch to all-out speed in another instant.
RELATED: Rhythm Is an Athlete: 3 Tools for Learning Rhythm
Here are ways to train different speeds and tempos to prepare for the erratic rhythms of fighting:
* Do sprint and hill intervals, not just jogging and road work at a steady pace.
* Jump rope for three-minute rounds at intervals of :30 sprint and :30 slow. Also, jump rope one foot at a time. For example, ten times in a row on one foot, then the other foot - for three minutes!
* Work “fast feet” on a high step or box. Manny Pacquiao likes this drill and it helps in developing both speed and power. Find a high step or box and work your feet for sprint intervals of :30, :45, and one minute.
* Move backward. Muhammad Ali is considered by many to be the greatest boxer of all time. Ali, very unconventionally, moved backward a lot. To train like him, set up four cones and jog backward around them in a back-pedaling style, then pivot and change direction. 3. Move Your Head
Other than moving your feet, the best way to not get hit is to move your head. Unfortunately, the practice of head movement is a lost art in boxing and the mixed martial arts. In boxing, the first thing you learn is to keep your hands up. Blocking and covering with your hands can save your hide, but even when you cover your head, you can still get your bell rung.
Better than shielding your head or blocking a strike, is to miss it entirely. My coach used to have us practice tracing the alphabet. We would get in front of the mirror and trace each letter with our heads. Some letters make more sense than others:
* “T” is a side-to-side slip and a duck.
* “V” is a good down and in slip.
* “C” is a good bob and weave letter.
* “B” is kind of hard to do in a fight!
Next time you shadowbox or spar, pick a few good letters to remind yourself to keep that head moving. Of course, in a combat sport other than boxing, be mindful of ducking too low because there may be a knee waiting for you down there. ’Blocking and covering with your hands can save your hide, but even when you cover your head, you can still get your bell rung.’ 4. Get Good at Holding Pads
As someone who has spent more time over the years holding pads and mitts than hitting them, I can tell you that doing so keeps you sharp. Holding pads or mitts well allows you to work on a few important things:
* You can study your opponent and determine where he or she is open without getting hit. Each time your opponent throws a punch or kick, he or she is open somewhere. When you are sparring often you are too busy defending to see these openings.
* Holding pads allows you to practice your blocks and shields. Getting “hit” while holding a shield, mitt, or pad allows you to experience the sensation of impact and relax in preparation for the real thing.
* When you are holding pads, you’re the coach. You’re in control of the timing and tempo, which gives you a chance to work on your footwork. When you’re doing partner drills, don’t think of it as “your turn” only when you’re on offense. Holding pads is a live round and your chance to get better in the same way it is when it’s your turn to strike.Training For A Boxing Match
RELATED: How to Hold Pads for Boxing (Video) 5. Condition Yourself to Get Hit
Nothing zaps your energy like getting hit. So, the first rule is to protect your most valuable asset - your head. When you get tired in a fight, your hands are likely to drop. One tip is to use three- or five-pound weights for your arms (and legs) when you train. When you take the weight off after a few rounds, you’ll not only feel faster, but you’ll be better conditioned to keep holding your hands high. Working the speed bag also works wonders for shoulder conditioning and keeping your hands up for extended periods. ’When you get tired in a fight, your hands are likely to drop. One tip is to use three- or five-pound weights for your arms (and legs) when you train.’Ways To Win A Boxing Match
Then, there’s conditioning for the body shot. To condition your midsection, you’re going to have to do more than crunches and leg lifts. Straight out of the old-school boxing playbook is getting hit with the medicine ball right in the abdomen. With a partner, have him or her stand right above you while you do crunches or ab pikes. Between each rep have your partner drop, press, or throw the medicine ball into your abdomen. The drill also works well with a Thai pad. But please make sure to use volume control with this exercise!
