WBA mistakenly removes Wilder from rankings

The World Boxing Association (WBA) announced the erroneous exclusion of former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder (43-3-1, 42 KOs) from the rankings:

“Deontay Wilder is ranked No. 9 due to the activity, record and caliber of his opponents. He was excluded from the ranking erroneously,” said the organisation.

Jarrell Miller, who was ranked 11th, was removed from the rankings.

Wilder's last fight took place on December 23, which he lost to Joseph Parker.
