The Baltic Boxing Union awards 2009 failed to reward any Estonian fighters for their efforts and fighters from Lithuania and Latvia did not feature highly in the rankings as well. No fighter from any country is currently a Baltic champion.

At the end of 2009, the highest ranked Estonian boxer was middleweight Sergey Melis. Melis is the first ever BBU Champion way back in 2008. Melis is currently ranked fourth in BBU Rankings.

Melis opened 2009 with a successful knockout defense of his title. Melis then campaigned in France. In May he defeated Mariusz Bikupski by TKO in the 8^th.

Later he lost to Julie Marie Sainte this past October when the referee waved off the fight in the 4^th round.

The only other ranked Estonian based fighter Albert Starikov at number nine in welterweight. Starikov fought four times in 2009, recording a record of 1-2-1 in those fights.

The young Baltic Boxing Union is still formulating itself and has many divisions which are vacant of a current champion.
