Current Australian boxing world champions - Men
Jai Opetaia
Titles: IBF and The Ring cruiserweight world championship
Champion since: July 2, 2022
Defences: IBF: 1 | The Ring: 3
Next fight: TBC
Opetaia etched his name into Australian sporting folklore when he overcame a badly broken jaw to defeat Mairis Briedis on the Gold Coast.
The southpaw showcased his sublime boxing skills as well as his otherworldly toughness to take the IBF and The Ring titles off the Latvian.
Opetaia cemented his claim as the world's best cruiserweight when he dished out a vicious beatdown to six-foot-seven Englishman Jordan Thompson in London.
Despite being forced to vacate his IBF belt prior to his next fight against Ellis Zorro, Opetaia looked every bit the man to beat at cruiserweight when icing the Englishman in the first round in Saudi Arabia.
In a rematch with Briedis in Saudi Arabia, Opetaia repeated the dose, taking a unanimous decision victory, surviving a late rally from the three-time champion to reclaim the IBF belt.
He then made light work of Jack Massey, again in Riyadh, forcing the Englishman's corner to throw in the towel in round six.
Liam Paro
Titles: IBF super lightweight world championship
Champion since: June 15, 2024
Defences: 0
Next fight: Richardson Hitchins (December 8 - Puerto Rico)
Paro put his hand up to do what few were willing to and take on Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico.
The decision paid off in a big way, with the 28-year-old southpaw coming away with the world title.
On the back of a skilled boxing performance and a perfect gameplan, Paro claimed a unanimous decision victory over the knockout artist in his own backyard.
The Queenslander is now returning to the scene of his victory to take on mandatory challenger, undefeated New Yorker Richardson Hitchins.
Current Australian boxing world champions - Women
Skye Nicolson
Title: WBC featherweight world championship
Champion since: April 6, 2024
Defences: 2
Next fight: TBC
Nicolson made the big call to forge on with her professional career, rather than return to the amateurs in pursuit of Olympic gold, and it paid almost immediate dividends.
The classy southpaw scored a dominant unanimous decision victory over Sabrina Maribel Perez in Tijuana to claim the interim WBC title.
She then defended the it with a convincing win over Lucy Wildheart in Dublin, recording her first stoppage win as a pro after her opponent's corner threw the towel in during the ninth round.
Nicolson upgraded her belt to the full title in Las Vegas when she scored a near-shutout unanimous decision victory over Sarah Mahfoud.
In the first defence of her full title, Nicolson recorded a dominant points victory over Dyana Vargas, winning every round to rubber stamp her credentials at the top of the division.
She then turned back the challenge of Raven Chapman in the first-ever women's title fight in Saudi Arabia, outclassing the UK fighter to retain her title.
Cherneka Johnson
Title: WBA bantamweight world championship
Champion since: May 12, 2024
Defences: 0
Next fight: TBC
Having previously held the IBF super bantamweight strap, New Zealand-born Cherneka Johnson became a two-time champion across two divisions when she picked up the WBA bantamweight strap.
The Melbourne-based fighter defeated Nina Hughes by majority decision as the chief support to Vasiliy Lomachenko's win over George Kambosos in Perth.
"Sugar Neekz", 29, made one defence of her previous world title and she'll no doubt be keen to hang on to this one a little longer.
