Angelo Leo is ready for the spotlight.
Leo, previously unranked in our ESPN featherweight rankings, delivered a knockout-of-the-year highlight versus Luis Alberto Lopez to become the new IBF featherweight champion this past Saturday. Lopez was ranked No. 1 in ESPN's 126-pound rankings.
"Fighting back in my hometown, I always yearned for this moment," said Leo, 30, after the fight. "What better way to do it than with a world title shot and a knockout. That left hook we've been practicing all camp."
As a result, Leo has now catapulted himself to No. 5, while Lopez falls to No. 6.
ESPN's divisional boxing rankings highlight the best in the sport in every weight class. They will change often, based on recent results and performances. Rankings are based on what a fighter has accomplished in the weight division in which he is ranked. Fighters who have announced they are moving to a different weight class will be ranked in that new division, if warranted, only once they fight in that weight class. Fighters who currently own titles in two divisions can be ranked in both.
Fighters who haven't competed in the past 12 months -- and don't have a fight scheduled -- will be dropped from the rankings until they fight again. Any fighter who tests positive for a performance-enhancing substance will also be removed. That boxer will be eligible to re-enter the rankings after his next bout.
Rankings are determined by Mike Coppinger, Nick Parkinson, Damian Delgado Averhoff and Andres Ferrari. They are updated weekly on Tuesdays.
