Why this ranking
Abe Attell ranks #97 with a 83.91 score on the 60-100 H&G All-Time Index. His standout win in our data is over Johnny Kilbane in 1910, who reached a 1,787 Peak-form Elo, one of the stronger opponents on his record. In 2 cases a result was later reversed, including Harlem Tommy Murphy, whom he beat once but lost to in a later fight. The honest tension is that the sustained head-to-head rating signal sits below the field of ranked fighters, so this placement rests more on résumé signals than on peak rating level. Peak-form Elo is 1,720 (±135), separate from the 60-100 career Index.
