Heavyweight: Tyson Fury ends the year still reigning as heavyweight champion. Oleksandr Usyk won three belts with his victory over Anthony Joshua.  A rematch between the two is expected in 2022.

Super Middleweight: Saul Alvarez completed his unification of the division with a knockout of Caleb Plant and started a new lineage. He is the first lineal king of the class since Andre Ward vacated to move to light heavyweight. 

Jr. Middleweight: Jermell Charlo-Brian Castano II is reportedly coming in the first quarter of 2022. Their draw in 2021 was one of the year’s better fights.

Lightweight: George Kambosos shocked the world for the division's crown, upsetting Teofimo Lopez after a long delayed title showdown. His first defense will be one of the more fascinating negotiation stories of the new year.

Jr. Lightweight: Shakur Stevenson and Kenichi Ogawa added to the belted ranks since the last update.

Featherweight: Veteran Kiko Martinez stunned the boxing world with a twilight title win over Kid Galahad in one of the feel-good stories of 2021.

Jr. Featherweight: We now have two unified titlists at Jr. featherweight following Stephen Fulton’s thrilling win over Brandon Figueroa. The ideal for 2022 would be a showdown between Fulton and Murodjon Akhmadaliev.

Jr. Flyweight: The WBA title situation in the division will be resolved in February when Hiroto Kyoguchi faces Estaban Bermudez. Masamichi Yabuki won a belt in one of the year's biggest upsets, stopping undefeated Kenshiro Teraji in September. Jonathan Gonzalez also scored a belt with a win over Elwin Soto.

Strawweight: Knockout CP Freshmart has now made the most consecutive defenses of the primary WBA belt at 105 lbs., breaking a tie at eight defenses with Chana Porpaoin in his first start of the year and then extending the record to ten with his December stoppage of Robert Paradero. Masataka Taniguchi won a major title with a stoppage of Wilfredo Mendez.
