The fight record for Buddy Schlereth shows a 7-8-29 fight with Tut Seymour. The source is Ring Magazine, but there's a note on the entry that says "date needs verification." Here's a newspaper story that should clarify the correct date as July 16. https://www.newspapers.com/article/st-loui...

There are currently two profiles in the database for a 1920s fighter called "Wop" Stonum. One is under that name (https://boxrec.com/en/box-pro/1060963), while another is under just his last name (https://boxrec.com/en/box-pro/772291). The second profile has one fight listed against Young ...

Please update the database to reflect a points win rather than a points loss for Clifford "Buddy" Schlereth. I'm guessing the headline saying he "almost won despite a hand injury" was the source of the confusion. However, the intent was I think that he was expected to win by knoc...

First let me renew my (and many other members') suggestion that the rankings should stop excluding Bridgerweights per se, but instead rank them as Heavyweights or, if appropriate, Cruiserweights. I don't disagree with what I assume is the implicit stance that bridgerweight is not a legitimate divisi...

Hi- I try to get a look at the rankings each week before the fights take place so that I can take note of them, but I was a bit late today and a few of the fighters I was interested in had already fought. Can someone please tell me the rankings of the following fighters immediately prior to their fi...

Awesome, thank you!

Hi Everybody- very random narrow question to follow: I always try to capture the rankings of top-50 fighters right before they fight, but I was a bit late doing so this week, and the Ellis Zorro-Hosea Burton fight had already happened by the time I looked. The rankings update more or less immediatel...

I've gotta say I'm really surprised at the extended silence about all these issues. Usually when there's a controversy about an update, they'll discuss it with us and either tweak it or defend the decisions.

In this case the site was brutally butchered, and it's like the comms are in lockdown.

I love that upcoming fights now display the current ranking of each fighter.

Unfortunately nearly every other change that's been made seems almost as if it was designed specifically to frustrate everything I come here to do.

Yeah....I like the fact that it shows current rankings for fighters in upcoming fights on the schedule now, as that saves me clicks in not having to click on every 15-0 figher to see if they've earned a decent ranking. I don't like that ratings points have been scrubbed (looked at a fight involving ...

On this fight: https://boxrec.com/en/event/745702/2155346 the fight details claim Mendouo was dropped in the first round, but says nothing about a second round KD. I thought I might have been going crazy in that I didn't remember a first round knockdown immediately after the fight. Went back and wat...

all guys ranked as bridgers by wbc should be rated as hws here, my opinion FYI Bilal Laggoune is no longer ranked at Bridger. Should he not be back in the rankings now at cruiser? Ditto for Isaac Chamberlain. Jerry Forrest is also out of the rankings, so he should be back at HW, along with Alexande...

Strongly disagree with your idea. You're basing a significant portion of what separates one fighter from another (especially at a mid-level) on winning title fights. First, I think it's nonsensical to base someone's objective value on something as subjective as even a high-level alphabet title. But ...

Regarding Bridgerweight and Forrest. It isn't a ratings issue - it is politics. Just look at his points in his record. The points are Heavyweight points. Could you expand on the political problem to help us understand? Is it that you would offend the WBC by calling their Bridgerweight top contender...

This thread is only the right place for discussing issues and ideas regarding the ratings algorithm. The right place for discussing issues with weight divisions and politics is here https://boxrec.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=94835 Thanks. I did actually try to post there first, but it is show...

The Bridgerweight thing makes zero sense. Rank them as Heavyweights. The end. Yeah that would probably simplify it even more. I mean I do think a guy like Bilal Laggoune who is pretty clearly a cruiserweight ought to be a cruiserweight, but if you don't want to get in the business of scrutinizing e...

I doubt this is the first time this has ever been brought up, but the increased inactivity from COVID (even though it's close to being back to normal) got me thinking: Would it be reasonably plausible to implement an option to view the rankings with different inactivity standards applied? So in othe...

It's probably been a while since he beat anyone decent, but he just got draws vs. Zhang and Hunter and still isn't ranked. Does he need to have a win before he's ranked? Jerry Forrest presents himself as #16 WBC Bridgerweight. Bridgerweights (neither Heavyweight nor Cruiserweight) cannot be ranked ...

Boxrec always shows the age in the boxer profile, if the date of birth is known. I just did a quick check. Yes, I found the age listed in many cases. But in many other instances, there was no age or DOB. This is in contrast to the way that Boxrec's system worked in the past, when age and DOB were a...

I was just watching this Azteca-broadcasted fight from 2017, and the result (RTD at 3:00 of Rd 3) is incorrect. https://boxrec.com/en/event/745119/2139222 It was a TKO at 1:26 of round 3 (and a bad stoppage, in my view). I think the last time I found one of these, I had to post a private video on yo...

Why can't boxrec rank him? Do they have a contract with the WBC?

Hi- on the profile for Heavyweight Jerry Forrest (who just fought last weekend), he has no ranking. He's listed as active, but still no ranking. I've also looked over the Heavyweight top-100, and he's not listed. I noticed this before his fight with Zhang this past weekend, also, and he wasn't ranke...

Great thanks- I promise I don't intend to ask regularly.

Hi computerrank, I normally make a list of fights involving top-50 fighters in certain divisions before they happen and the ranks of the fighters at the time, but I fell asleep this weekend and didn't get around to it in time. If you get a chance, would you mind telling me the rankings of the follo...
