Read this with care

H&G All-Time Index v1.2.3 is a fixed public release, not a live database. A fighter can lead one signal and still sit lower in the main all-time list because the final score blends sustained head-to-head rating, dominance over contemporaries, quality of opponents beaten, title record, and sustained top-level career.

For disputed placements, use the fighter page, methodology page and corrections process rather than treating one number as the whole argument.
