Question
What is the lightest boxing weight in the UK?
Hi Aoife,
Thanks for the question.
The lightest weight division in professional boxing is strawweight, with a maximum weight limit of 105 lbs. This applies to the UK and everywhere else.
I hope this help, Aoife!
Thanks again for writing.
Regards,
Lian
