Why is Wilder listed as active?

Post by dont ask me »

Source - Boxrec

"The Active ratings include only those boxers who have fought a bout within the past 365 days. After a year of not fighting, a boxer is automatically designated "Inactive" by the BoxRec computer. A boxer is also designated "Inactive" if he has announced his retirement, even if he may have had a bout within the past 365 days. Every boxer in the database is rated--even those with an 0-1 record."

I'm guessing because Covid has made it more difficult to get fights so maybe they aren't being as strict with this at the moment.

With the Covid thing, they have added six months extra to the inactivity threshold.

Exactly that! :TU: (Will probably stay at 18 months, even after COVID...)
