Tyson Fury remains listed as WBC heavyweight champion, while Anthony Joshua has been left out of the WBC rankings ahead of his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.
Fury currently holds the WBC crown which he successfully defended in his mandatory clash with Dillian Whyte back in April. He informed the organisation yesterday that he has retired, which has since been confirmed by the organisation's president Mauricio Sulaiman.
It was expected that Fury would wait to see if Joshua can beat rival Oleksandr Usyk at the Jeddah Super Dome in Saudi Arabia next Saturday which would set up an undisputed clash. And this remains the case with Fury remaining ranked as the WBC champion after the organisation refreshed their official heavyweight rankings today.
