Could someone explain the professional boxing sanctioning bodies to me?

Professional boxing is governed by a number of sanctioning bodies that oversee the sport and its participants. These bodies have the authority to sanction fights, issue rankings, and award titles. There are four major sanctioning bodies in professional boxing:

  1. World Boxing Council (WBC)
  2. World Boxing Association (WBA)
  3. International Boxing Federation (IBF)
  4. World Boxing Organization (WBO)

Each sanctioning body has its own set of rules and regulations, and they often compete with each other for control of the sport. This competition can lead to confusion and controversy, as fighters may hold multiple titles from different sanctioning bodies.

In addition to the four major sanctioning bodies, there are also a number of minor sanctioning bodies that operate on a smaller scale. These bodies may sanction fights in specific regions or countries, and they may issue their own titles.

The sanctioning bodies play a vital role in professional boxing, and they have a significant impact on the careers of fighters. Fighters who are ranked highly by the sanctioning bodies are more likely to get big fights and win titles.
