Why this ranking
Canelo Álvarez ranks #5 with a 97.04 score on the 60-100 H&G All-Time Index. His standout win in our data is over Gennadiy Golovkin in 2022, who reached a 2,163 Peak-form Elo, one of the stronger opponents on his record. He also has 9 wins over opponents who were ranked in the top 100 around the time of the fight; these are matched by name and date, so we treat them as a careful estimate. Holding the score back, dominance over contemporaries sits below the field of ranked fighters in this release. Peak-form Elo is 2,246 (±218), 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 68 bouts we hold full data for from 2005 to 2025, which is why this count differs from the professional record above.
For the data-minded
Peak-form Elo rating: 2,246 (peak dated 2019-05-01). 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 ±218 Elo, so read close comparisons with care.
