The World Boxing Cup is a competition format developed by World Boxing whereby elite male and female boxers accrue ranking points over several stages of competition during the calendar year.
It is designed to bring greater structure and meaning to the competition calendar in Olympic-style boxing and culminates in a final event where the stage winners and other top-ranked boxers compete for the World Boxing Cup trophy.
