List of British cruiserweight boxing champions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

List of British cruiserweight boxing champions is a table showing the boxers who have won the British cruiserweight title, which has been the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBoC) since 1985.

A champion will often voluntarily relinquish the title in order to fight for a higher-ranked championship, such as the world or European. Where the date on which a champion relinquished the title is unclear, the date of the last BBBoC sanctioned fight is shown.

r – Champion relinquished title.
s – Champion stripped of title.
