Ratings in bouts assigned to a division are converted to a division my multiplying with a factor. Between 1.0 for Heavyweight and 11.9 for Minimumweight.
I could avoid that problem, when I just showed the base ratings there anyway.JCS wrote: ↑08 Dec 2020, 21:01That's ugly :)computerrank wrote: ↑08 Dec 2020, 18:17Ratings in bouts not assigned to a division are base ratings, They are not converted to a division.JCS wrote: ↑08 Dec 2020, 18:06 Strange rating movement in Ricardo Lopez's record...

Can't you assign to a division based on weigh-in weights?

It is the backwards influence of his LATER success. Without the win against Joshua his rating at time of the Parker bout would have been only 81 points. And without his MD against Parker the rating at Parker bout would have been only 55 points.
The current ratings do NOT depend only on the current bout, but also on all bouts before. So a boxer may need a stronger result to keep his rating, while another boxers may keep his rating with a a lower level result.

Literally begging boxrec doesn’t start doing bridgerweight class. There’s like 40 people in the division meaning if you’re. 1.5 star at crustier you’re suddenly a 3 star guy at bridger. It’s sidestepping legitimacy IMO, and people who don’t make the top domestic 10 will suddenly leap into a higher ranking fighting in a weight class that technically all cruisers and heavies can dip in and out of. Hope this isn’t the case
Excellent news Martin.

Ray definitely was not full strength vs Howard.Daedalus wrote: ↑29 Sep 2020, 11:05I think the 50% point drop for 18 months of inactivity is too harsh and doesn't reflect common sense. Was Ray Leonard half-strength when he fought Howard, and quarter-strength vs Hagler? Absolutely not! A 25% or even 50% SRL has no shot against Hagler; maybe Ray was 70-80%. Was Thurman 50% when he fought Lopez? No, and had Keith's points not been shaved, the fight vs Pacquiao would've reflected an even fight than a gross mismatch. Some may say, these are anecdotes using elites and not applicable to everyone. Well, that's the point: the greats take their craft seriously and should be the example. Look at Julio Chavez Jr. He takes a vacation and loses 7 points, then more time off and -1 point; compare that to the 300+ losses by elites which defies reality.computerrank wrote: ↑28 Sep 2020, 14:58JCS wrote: ↑28 Sep 2020, 12:51 I have to say, even I'm a bit confused by what is displayed in the rankings versus fighter pages... the movement, etc. And I have my own rating system for MMA, so that says a lot.
For instance, I saw Casimero drop from #2 to #5 this weekend after a KO win. Was he somehow spotted some points, but then reduced after fighting a much lesser rated opponent? Did he just happen to get another penalty on the same date? I don't know.
Why do almost all boxer's current ratings seem far lower than in previous fights? Has Covid reduced activity to the point where it affects the entire landscape? Is WHR so dependent on "future" results that this is somehow treated as missing data.. and therefore, missing points? Is this a glitch in how past points are displayed?
It must be a major headache to go over the same set of questions week after week... but the WHR-based implementation is enough for folks to get a handle on, let alone all of the ancillary things. To understand WHR from a basic standpoint requires some brain power. To understand the intricacies of it, involves knowledge of some pretty advanced math... and then on top of it, all the BoxRec-specific mods. Yikes.
People would be much better off looking at the ranking pages... rather than to try and build fight-by-fight cases for fighters.not very obvious, I fear ...
All depends on all ... time and opponents ...
The last Boxrec bout ratings and the Boxrec current ratings are tentatively lower than the the bout ratings before, even for a boxer at his best. This is due to the fact, that the current rating is combined with more uncertainty (due to missing affirmative future results) than former results, Boxrec for this reason does not use the full WHR rating, but it uses the full WHR rating deminished by the estimated mean uncertainty.
* Therefore, the 50% penalty should be significantly trimmed to 10-20%, or replaced with a fixed point deduction (100-200) with a cap.
When Boxrec only uses established weight class divisions, and no one fought yet officially in the Bridger division, why are all the Boxers from the WBC unranked (there is no ranking, even if the last fight is only a few months ago)?computerrank wrote: ↑29 Dec 2020, 03:52Only WBC uses that weight division now.

This is not an issue with the ratings formula - this is a question, to what division a boxer may be assigned or not.ZigggZagggg wrote: ↑07 Jan 2021, 13:29When Boxrec only uses established weight class divisions, and no one fought yet officially in the Bridger division, why are all the Boxers from the WBC unranked (there is no ranking, even if the last fight is only a few months ago)?computerrank wrote: ↑29 Dec 2020, 03:52Only WBC uses that weight division now.

i totally agree to use only the established divisions. But have no rating for all the Bridger weights is not OK
Boxers, who change the division (other divisions than briger) are also still rated .
Also those boxers, who are in the the Bridger division still fight in the established ones (heavy or cruiser) for others than WBC.
So please rate them in their "normal" divisions.
Only bug fixes. What change exactly did you notice and when, please?jujigatame wrote: ↑14 Jan 2021, 19:19 Was there a recent release?
Taylor has slipped to #3 at 140 which is a little questionable.
Sorry I couldn't tell you when it happened. But Josh Taylor was #2 behind Ramirez for a long time and then I checked and suddenly he's at #3 behind Zepeda as well. I'm fairly confident it was within the last several weeks.computerrank wrote: ↑15 Jan 2021, 03:09Only bug fixes.

He dumped from #1 to #2 after his mismatch win against Khongsong, his only match after 15 months now. He further dropped to #3 after Zepeda overtook him with his win against Baranchyk.jujigatame wrote: ↑15 Jan 2021, 20:50Sorry I couldn't tell you when it happened.

I'm pretty sure Taylor has dropped from #1 to #3 in the last 3-4 months.
I in detail dropped the critical bouts in descending order and inspected the resulting ratings:jujigatame wrote: ↑16 Jan 2021, 18:56 I'm 99% sure that Zepeda did not overtake him after the Baranchyk fight. It was much more recent.
For some reason I remember Taylor going straight from #1 to #3....jujigatame wrote: ↑17 Jan 2021, 11:39 That's very confusing.
First, I don't understand why Taylor seems to get what is effectively a massive penalty for KOing a scrub.
Second, you don't have to believe me because I know I don't have any evidence, but I am 99% certain that for a long time Taylor was #2 behind Ramirez, and this just changed in the last several weeks.
