Last updated

List of British super-featherweight boxing champions is a table showing the boxers who have won the British super-featherweight title.

A champion may retire or voluntarily relinquish the title in order to fight for a higher-ranked championship. Where the date on which a champion relinquished the title is unclear, the date of the last BBBoC sanctioned fight is shown.
