Ben Whittaker

Ben Whittaker holds the #10 spot at light heavyweight, flying the flag for England — and rankings that high aren't given away, they're taken.

Judges are mostly decorative at his fights. 9 of 12 wins have come inside the distance, a 75% KO rate that shapes how every opponent trains for him.

The form line is loud: 4 straight wins, the latest over Richard Rivera (TKO R2). Momentum like that forces the division's hand.

He's 36 now. Fighters at this stage aren't building toward something; they're spending what's left, and that usually makes for the best fights.
