Conor Benn and Tommy Fury handed contrasting WBC rankings

British fighters Conor Benn and Tommy Fury are back in the World Boxing Council Ratings after earning their places in different ways.

Benn is reinstated following a lack of evidence in two drug test failures. Meanwhile, Fury enters after defeating a YouTuber.

Taking the number seven spot, Benn can challenge champion Errol Spence Jr. if chosen as a voluntary pick. On the other hand, Fury has plenty of work to get his shot.

Fury must beat at least two fighters above him to get into the top fifteen eventually.

Current champion Badou Jack, who won the title on the same bill as Fury, is reigning supreme. The man he defeated, Junior Makabu, enters the WBC rankings at two after relinquishing the coveted green and gold belt.
