Topps has achieved what many believed to be impossible: they’ve partnered with Top Rank, Golden Boy Promotions, and Matchroom to send boxing into a new era with a multi-promotion deal. This is big news for fans and collectors eager to see boxing back at the forefront of the hobby landscape.

Back in 1951, Topps famously released Topps Ringside, a 96-card set celebrating boxing legends like Rocky Marciano, Joe Louis, and Sugar Ray Robinson. That set remains iconic today, with high-grade copies fetching thousands in the marketplace. Now, the company is back with a new 100-card set—distinct from the original but rooted in the sport’s rich history.
Topps promises several first-time autograph signers, including at least four autograph sets. These include:
Base Autographs: Available in various parallels, including Superfractors
1951 Ringside Autographs: Borrowing the classic design from the original Ringside set, with colored parallels
Ring Generals: Featuring gems like Mike Tyson autograph
Dual Autographs: Combining top fighters on a single card

The set also offers case-hit Helix and Hidden Gems inserts—similar to their successful inserts in other sports—highlighting special appearances like.. Jake Paul.

The Hobby boxes, which include 12 packs of eight cards, are already sold out, and the Hobby case is set to be released today. Topps has yet to release the full checklist; this has unfortunately become a bit of a pattern.

The absence of Gervonta Davis, who was excluded from the set by Topps, might be related to his arrest on July 10, 2025, in Miami Beach on a domestic violence charge. However, a picture of his 1/1 auto was shared on social media, and if it exists, it could become one of the most sought-after boxing cards in history.
We’ve previously covered rookie card guides for fighters like Canelo Alvarez and Terrence Crawford. Unsurprisingly, some of the 1951 Topps Ringside cards have sold for over a thousand dollars, and Topps’ reintroduction of boxing cards is sure to shake up the hobby.
