Why this ranking
Andre Ward ranks #65 with a 86.39 score on the 60-100 H&G All-Time Index. His public win-loss-draw record shows no defeats, so there are no losses to add context to here. His standout win in our data is over Carl Froch in 2011, who reached a 2,139 Peak-form Elo, one of the stronger opponents on his record. Holding the score back, dominance over contemporaries sits below the field of ranked fighters in this release. Data Confidence is Medium, so the rating should be read with wider uncertainty. Peak-form Elo is 2,246 (±326), separate from the 60-100 career Index.

About this rating
Rankings: H&G All-Time Index v2.0.0. Reflects fights up to , the most recent on record. The ratings are fixed to that point, so fights after it are not yet included.
The rating itself is built from the 32 bouts we hold full data for from 2004 to 2017, which is why this count differs from the professional record above.
For the data-minded
Peak-form Elo rating: 2,246 (peak dated 2017-06-01). This best-point rating sits on its own scale and is not directly comparable with the 0-100 index.
The peak estimate carries an uncertainty band of about ±326 Elo, so read close comparisons with care.
