Suggestions for BoxRec - Archived

[oogiebe]

Here's another suggestion: A filter by star count for upcoming fights. I'd love to see what fights are up in the next few months but only the 4-5 star fights instead of every single fight in the world!

For some reason, I think they used to have that.

I guess this was suggested already, but just in case...
I'd love one could see the rankings of all weight classes and p4p as they were AT ANY POINT IN TIME. Say you wanted to see who were the greatest welterweights by june of 93... You just select the weight, month and year and there you have it!!! That would be super interesting info to see and it's probably not super difficult thing to implement, I'd assume.

I suspect that is pretty hard...it would have to run the rankings from the beginning to generate them for any month.

Or generate every Month/Year/weight class combo and store them....but they'd have to re-generate them after each rating system tweak.

It might be possible, but if it were easy they probably would have done that already.

It would be cool, though.

I have a question.
Why is that the case that boxrec always seem to miss majority of scheduled undercard fights on Top Rank cards?

I'm curious about the reasoning. I know that this week for example, You have Guido Vianello, Sonny Conto - and Andy Vences fights Albert Bell - and boxrec doesn't have any of those fights up on the card... seems like they're not added until weigh-ins.


When it comes to fight-cards of other big promoters - like PBC, Eddie Hearn or allegedly - You guys have all the fights including deep undercards early, but not with Top Rank.
I'd appriciate answer to satisfy my curiosity

You could just use Top Rank website. It’s not bad at all.

How on earth did you navigate to that page? I would say that yes, the Top Rank site is pretty bad.

Pretty easy to navigate to this, though: https://www.toprank.com/wp-content/uplo ... _Image.pdf

Can you guys please maintain Canelo as WBA and WBC champion? You can't go along with the nonsense these governing bodys pull in promoting Canelo to "franchise" champion. That still makes him their top champion at that weight class, Murata and Charlo are secondary champions.

Ring magazine doesn't acknowledge this organization BS, I hope you guys change your minds on this

How about someone from the site actually comments on these suggestions ?

[Ruthless-RKO]

What's with the weird changes made to the divisions??

Light middleweight is now referred to as light?

wtf?

Welter? Feather? Super Light? Super Middle? Bantam?

Why not just leave it as it was?

Why the f*ck is boxrec replacing some strings like "boxing scene" without space or "Frank|Warren" with space in forum posts with something else?

That is pathetic.

I think W@rren threatened to sue the site about comments made about him before. So they are extra careful with him. No idea about Boxing Scene

I believe the boxing scene was to do with me.

To have Floyd Mayweather at the top of the pound for pound all time greatest is so incredibly lazy reporting. What Sugar Ray Robinson did week in week out at various weights in a Hollywood era of boxing is not replicable. I understand that times and eras are hard to judge but come on, Sam Langford is even nowhere near top 10 and he really was a pound for pound great.

How's that? Ruthless>..what did you do?!!!!

[Lackeos]

Usyk has an asterisk by his name, but no fight scheduled. My guess is there's a table somewhere in the database with scheduled fights, and his fight with Takam is marked inactive or isDeleted, and the asterisk is displaying for that inactive row. So what I'm saying is... the asterisk logic should be changed to exclude inactive rows.

[oogiebe]

Is it possible to end the "allegedly" substitution for allegedly.

Also, letting us share article links from Boxing Scene.

It would be much appreciated.

No can do on your first request......I'm advised that .it's needed in order to shelter the innocent from sharks.

Why don't you box all the matches in Serbian boxers but only lost ones? My husband boxed last season the league of Serbia, out of all matches (nine) won you only wrote one that he handed in. Why ????

[Controversial]

Some fighters now have their amateur bouts recorded however most are incomplete and it doesn't actually say what their total overall amateur record was, i.e. Lennox Lewis only shows 6 amateur bouts yet when you click on his wiki link from his record it says he had over 90 amateur fights. Is there anyway of listing their total number of amateur bouts even if the specifics are not known fully?

I appreciate amateur numbers are not always accurate so maybe list them with a disclaimer such as 80-10 (thought to be accurate)

[alimich99]

In the section SCHEDULED and RESULTS, can we have a new search to find directly FEMALE fights only?

It would be easy to add it and really practical to have it.

Thank you

I like Mythical Fights.
Good match ups, some very creative bouts.
No one posts on it so what's the point.
You'd be better off turning it into something else and slipping the mythical fights in there somehow.

I don't know I didn't do them, I answered a few though.
Bit overkill, nevertheless the guy who posts them does come up with some good matches and challenging bouts I have to say that for him.

I very much want Boxrec to strive, but the latest ad placements (at least on mobile) are just too much:

I could live with this if it was only the first time, only the front page or something similar, but it's on every single page. I remember once it was possible to pay a monthly or yearly amount to have the site ad-free. I don't know if that's the solution, but please do something, because it's really bad as it is right now

As of today, 21st December 2019, the profile picture you have of Jermall Charlo is actually his twin brother, Jermell. Jermall has a black birthmark on the top left side of his forehead.

Totally different pictures.

Please bring back the last 6 fights for fighters on your watchlist. Even last 3 at the minimum would be appreciated
