Ring Magazine Championship

The Ring Magazine Championship is a prestigious boxing title awarded by The Ring magazine, based on the fighter's skill, record, and active status. Unlike organizational belts, it’s considered a lineal championship—meaning the champion is the ‘man who beat the man,’ reflecting an ongoing lineage. The Ring awards titles in various weight classes, serving as a mark of excellence and a symbol of a boxer's status in the sport. It’s highly respected and often regarded as the most meaningful championship belt in boxing.
