Why this ranking
Dave Hilton ranks #945 with a 71.27 score on the 60-100 H&G All-Time Index; that sits in the lower range of this visible index scale, but still means inclusion among the 1,000 ranked fighters. His standout win in our data is over Dingaan Thobela in 2000, who reached a 1,817 Peak-form Elo, one of the stronger opponents on his record. In one case a result was later reversed: he beat Stephane Ouellet once, then lost to him in a later fight. Data Confidence is Medium, so the rating should be read with wider uncertainty. Peak-form Elo is 1,849 (±428), 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 35 bouts we hold full data for from 1981 to 2007, which is why this count differs from the professional record above.
For the data-minded
Peak-form Elo rating: 1,849 (peak dated 2007-05-01). 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 ±428 Elo, so read close comparisons with care.
