H&G All-Time Index v2.0.0 visual leaderboard

Best boxers by peak-form Elo

Floyd Mayweather Jr leads the Peak-form Elo list, with Oleksandr Usyk and Terence Crawford close enough to make the order worth arguing about.

This list ranks fighters by their best-ever level, measured by Peak-form Elo (a single skill rating, like a chess strength number, where higher is better). It rewards how good a fighter was at their peak, not how long they boxed.

Showing the top 100 by peak-form elo. Every ranked fighter is searchable on the main all-time index.

Read this with care

H&G All-Time Index v2.0.0 is a fixed public release, not a live database. A fighter can top one of these lists and still rank lower overall. The all-time score blends several things: how good they were in their fights, how far ahead of their rivals they stood, how tough their opponents were, their title record, and how long they stayed near the top.

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