Boxing's Rising Stars: Five Fighters to Watch in 2025

Errol Spence Jr.: The former unified welterweight champion is set to make a jump to 154 pounds and take on a difficult test against Sebastian Fundora in March or April. A win over Fundora would be Spence's most impressive feat yet.
Devin Haney: The WBC junior welterweight champion in recess could get a rematch against Ryan Garcia in early 2025. A win over Garcia would launch Haney to a new stratosphere of stardom and should reclaim his place on the pound-for-pound list.
Daniel Dubois: The IBF heavyweight champion will begin the year with a second title defense against a former champion when he meets Joseph Parker on Feb. 22 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. If Dubois can push past the resurgent Parker, he'll pursue a rematch with Oleksandr Usyk, only this time the undisputed heavyweight championship would be on the line.
Keyshawn Davis: The 2020 Olympic silver medalist will challenge for his first world title on Feb. 14 when he meets Denys Berinchyk at New York's Theater at Madison Square Garden. A title win in convincing fashion against Berinchyk could land Davis some marquee unification fights later in the year.
Oscar Collazo: The WBO, WBA strawweight champion is boxing's smallest men's champion at 105 pounds. He could do so by rising up the weight classes in the same manner as Naoya Inoue and Manny Pacquiao.

This article looks at the boxers who can make an impact in 2025, including Ryan Garcia, Errol Spence Jr., and more.
